Just got another call from one of those 'car accident claims companies' on my mobile. They had my name, which was a bit disconcerting. I informed them that I’d be filing a report with the Telephone Preference Service.

I received a rather peculiar call from someone claiming to be helping with a compensation claim for an accident I supposedly had, which wasn’t my doing at all. Naturally, I enquired about the information they possessed - my name, the accident date, and whatnot. However, the chap on the other end, who identified himself as Shaun from the 'Motor Accident Bureau', insisted that he couldn't provide those details due to privacy protocols. How quaint! It seemed rather odd that I had to offer my information for them to verify my identity! Interestingly enough, he claimed to be calling from Wigan. It makes one wonder if that might actually be a genuine number, perhaps linked to an actual physical location, instead of the usual dodgy overseas ones we’re all too familiar with. If you find yourself inundated with such calls, feel free to hang up without a second thought. But if you’ve got a few moments to spare, engage them in conversation and refrain from disclosing anything personal - it’s a clever way to keep them busy while you let others go about their business uninterrupted!

Some bloke rang me up saying there'd been a small crash involving my car, even though I haven't driven it much because of lockdown. He kept trying to talk about some claim but when I told him it wasn't true, he just hung up.

This number, 01942410488, is nothing but a scam! It’s best to steer clear and not pick up if they call. Complete dodgy characters, honestly.

Definitely looks like a scam to me. The phone stopped ringing before I even had a chance to pick up, and when I tried calling back, no one answered. All I got was some terrible background music.

I didn’t answer the call at first and decided to check out what others said about the number here. Pretty relieved I did because I’ve just blocked it now.

Someone saying they were from the Motor Accident Bureau, which sounds really official and insurance-like, called me up. They said I’d been in an accident that wasn’t my fault but couldn’t give any specifics. When I asked who runs them or keeps an eye on their calls, they just dodged the questions and ended up hanging up on me. Quite dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call from someone claiming I’d been in a mishap with the RTA, which I haven’t. I asked them to provide the insurance info and details about the car they said they had on record, and they totally freaked out, couldn’t answer a thing. Just another dodgy scam trying their luck.

Was inquiring about a car crash I apparently had a hand in. They didn’t even seem to know my actual name, yet claimed to possess a copy of my insurance and the related claim. Absolute nonsense, if you ask me!

Got a call from a woman with an Aussie accent, she asked if I was someone by name, but I told her there’s no one here by that name. Then she checked if she was ringing my mobile, which I confirmed. She claimed I’d been in a road accident, but I said I don’t even own a car. She kept pushing, saying maybe I was in it as a passenger or something. I told her straight up it sounded like a scam, thanked her sarcastically and ended the call. Blocked the number right away.

I got a ring from someone using this number, they said they were from some firm called Road Call. They tried to chat about a supposed car accident I had with a reckless driver. I quickly knew it was dodgy, so I played along and asked which one of the many crashes I’d had since January they meant. After that, the bloke started getting pretty rude with me. Honestly, steer clear of this total con.

They were laughing loads, then went on asking for someone who isn't here. When I asked their name, they just hung up. Pretty sure it’s one of those scam calls or phishing things. Would be nice if they acted a bit more professional though!

I got a call about some small accident they said I was connected to. Totally caught me off guard since I’ve no clue what they’re on about. Felt like it was just a mix-up or something dodgy going on.

Somebody called saying they were from the “road clear department”, which isn’t a real company - they pretend to help folks with accident claims. Avoid calling back, because the number has a per-minute charge.
