I've just received a call myself. They claim that 3,000 individuals have been chosen, and apparently, I'm due £5,000. Additionally, there's talk of £7,000 coming back for home taxes. They instructed me to call a particular number and provide a unique reference code. Quite the dodgy affair, if you ask me!

We've just received a call that was exactly the same! How bizarre!

Earlier today, we received a rather dubious call from a chap named "Daniel," who claimed that, due to our impeccable record as model citizens-prompt tax payments and a clean criminal slate-we had been chosen as one of a mere 2,000 individuals in the UK eligible for a staggering tax rebate of up to £7,000 to address payments from the past seven years. It all sounded far too fishy for my liking, so I decided to terminate the conversation and hang up.

Today, we received a ring from someone claiming to be from the council tax office purportedly representing the government. The caller informed us that we were eligible for a £7000 refund for timely payment of our council tax. However, when we declined to share our bank or card details, she offered us a phone number to contact one Mr. Derek Goodman for further information. We took it upon ourselves to investigate this number, only to discover that it was nothing more than a scam.

Earlier today, I received a rather suspicious call stating that I had £7,000 waiting to be claimed. Naturally, I did some digging and even reported it to the police. They confirmed it was nothing but a scam! Just a word of caution to everyone-stay vigilant and don’t get taken in by such nonsense!

I recently received a phone call from someone claiming that we were entitled to a £7,000 refund on our council tax, which honestly sounded too good to be true. However, I strongly advise steering clear of such communications; it’s definitely a scam. I didn’t bother dialling the number provided, which was 02081230965. Upon investigating the number, it turned out to be a complete fraud. Stay cautious, folks!

We received a call from someone named Daniel, who claimed to be affiliated with the council tax office. He instructed us to contact a Derek Williams at 02081230965. Following that, he mentioned that we need to send £95 through Western Union to a charity in order to receive a £7,000 refund from the council tax office, as a one-off reward for having paid our council tax punctually.

Earlier today, I received a rather dubious phone call claiming there were 70 individuals awaiting some sort of announcement. Naturally, we decided to investigate further and even reached out to the police for guidance. They confirmed it was nothing more than a scam. So, I urge everyone to steer clear of such nonsense!

I just received a call from this number, trying to sell us the very same deal - a £7.00 rebate. What cracked me up was when we asked for her name, she quickly replied with a thick foreign accent, saying it was 'Peter Wilson.' Absolutely hilarious!

My mother-in-law received calls with the same message repeatedly, asking her to send a cheque. Surprisingly, these callers claimed there was a risk of the cheque going missing in the post and suggested it would be wiser to deposit the money directly into her bank account instead. However, she decided to take her chances with the cheque. When she tried to discuss it over the phone, they abruptly hung up on her. Quite the turn of events, isn’t it?

Our mother-in-law just received the same ring today. He has to call the London number to check his identity, and we've advised him to contact our local council to inform them about this scam. It turns out that the council folks had no clue about any con involving council tax. You'd think they would have been in the loop by now! It’s really alarming to consider how many elderly individuals might fall victim to such tricks. It’s downright scary, isn't it?

We've received the same ring claiming they were sending a cheque and enquired why a council from London is trying to reach us here in Chesterfield. It got amusing when he started looking up what the weather's like in his area-absolutely hilarious!

Received a call from this number, and they were pushing the same deal-£7,000 rebate. The hilarious part? As soon as we asked for her name, she responded (with a very evident foreign twang) saying it was Peter Wilson. Absolutely cracking up!

It's blatantly a scam. We’ve just received the exact same call! Who on earth would ring you up out of the blue claiming they've got a £7,000 refund for overpaid council tax? We questioned him about his location and he had the audacity to say he was calling from the head office of the council tax department in London. Quite amusing, really! Our council tax is handled by Harrogate Borough Council, not some random outfit in the capital. Always be sure to protect your banking details. Just have a bit of fun with them and suggest they send a refund cheque instead!

I received a rather suspicious phone call supposedly from the Head office of the British Council on Regent Street. The caller, who identified herself as Mercy Cook, claimed that since I’ve consistently paid my council tax punctually and have a clean criminal record, I was one of 3,000 fortunate individuals eligible for a tax rebate ranging from £5,000 to £7,000. They gave me a reference number and a contact number, 02081230965, to follow up. However, we decided to request a cheque sent through the post instead of providing any bank details, as something felt a bit off about the whole situation. To clarify, I reached out to my local council, and to my relief, they confirmed it’s a scam. Best to stay vigilant, folks!
