10 yearsWe've recently received an identical call about our council tax, stating that due to consistent timely payments over the last twenty years, we might be eligible for a refund of £7,130. A young lady named Jennifer Smith called us, and then she passed us on to her manager, James Carter. He indicated that £95 would need to be sent through Western Union to unlock the funds. As he even had our council tax reference, it all appeared quite convincing. Thankfully, we took the precaution of looking things up here beforehand!Jennifer SmithJames CarterWestern Union10 yearsMy other half shared their banking details, including the sort code and their date of birth, with these individuals. I reached out to the fraud department at my bank for guidance, and they assured me it’s okay as long as we don't disclose the debit card details. They've even flagged the account for unusual activity. If anyone disagrees or has a different view, I’d love to hear your thoughts here. However, we firmly believe it’s a dodgy call on their part!10 yearsHello there! We tried reaching out as well. Is this some sort of scam, or what? The same chap, James Carter, has been in touch with me as well. He hasn’t asked for any cash so far, but I can expect another call from him later. Quite curious!James Carter10 yearsI’ve experienced the same situation, where I was instructed to dial 95 for assistance in getting a one-time reimbursement for council tax linked to 7132. They mentioned I should speak to someone named James Carter. The contact address provided was for the Treasury Department, Council Tax Benefit, located at Five Regence Street, London, SW11AS.James CarterTreasury DepartmentCouncil Tax BenefitFive Regence StreetLondonSW11AS10 yearsHello everyone! We've been in touch with our local council, and they’ve confirmed that this number is indeed a scam. It’s definitely not worth your time or personal information. Stay vigilant and don’t share any of your details with them!11 yearsThey mentioned that we’d be entitled to a refund on our council tax provided we shared our banking details!12 yearsI received a phone call from someone who provided a contact number for a council tax refund, specifically RC512. The number they shared is 02030265276.12 yearsEarlier today, on a Bank Holiday of all times, our father received a rather dubious call! The number in question is 02070431901. The caller claimed something very similar about paying council tax punctually and mentioned that he was owed over £7,000. To add to the absurdity, he then asked for a £95 administration fee. Regrettably, Dad gave away his bank details, and as soon as we started probing the caller with more inquiries, he became quite irate. It’s definitely a scam of some sort, no doubt about it!Bank HolidayDad12 yearsHello there! We received a call from a chap named Mr. James Carter, who mentioned that the government is set to reimburse us for council tax - a sum of £7,154, if I'm not mistaken. He asked for our bank details, but I opted for a cheque instead, which he surprisingly accepted. Then he prodded me to send £95 to a charity through Western Union. Quite the unusual situation, I must say!James CarterWestern Union12 yearsI received a call from individuals with what sounded like Indian accents, claiming that we are eligible for a £7000 council tax refund courtesy of "the British Council" for being exemplary citizens in the UK. However, we opted not to confirm any of their claims, even though they had the nerve to recite our address! We never got to the stage of divulging any bank information. When we asked for a callback number, they promptly provided us with this one.British CouncilUK12 yearsGreetings! We received a rather suspicious call from some individuals claiming that, because our council tax payments are consistently prompt, we could potentially receive a sum of £7,000. They insisted on obtaining our bank details, but we firmly declined and requested that they send a cheque instead. Sounds a bit dodgy, doesn’t it?13 yearsI find myself in the same boat! I was instructed to dial 95 to get through to 7132 regarding a one-off refund for council tax. Be sure to ask for a chap named James Carter when you make the call. The address provided for the council tax benefit is the Treasury Department, located at Five Regency Street, London, SW1 4AS.James CarterTreasury DepartmentFive Regency StreetLondonSW1 4ASSubmit Your Own Report (020 3026 5276)
