11 yearsMy uncle, who’s quite vulnerable, ended up getting scammed out of over £1800 by these people. They kept claiming they were helping with PPI refunds and kept demanding admin fees, one after another, never stopping. Such a disgrace!11 yearsHad a call off some bloke named Marcus about a PPI refund, saying there was a government tax to be paid using paysafe cards. I cupped on straight away that it was dodgy, so told him my other half would sort the cards by 4.30pm. Marcus rang back but my husband wasn’t having any of it and told him to shove his cheque where the sun doesn’t shine.Marcus11 yearsGot a call saying I was owed about £2,875 from some PPI on my M&S credit card. They said someone else would ring me back later that day to sort out a cheque and collect some more info. Also told me to buy a Paysafe card. The bloke was quite pushy and the message was hard to follow, with mentions of the London Magistrates and all that. I just calmly told them where they could stick the cheque.M & SLondon11 yearsGot a voicemail telling me to ring back this number about a payment from the London magistrate’s court for PPI, and that they’re sending the money through us. I phoned and asked what it was about, apparently it related to a credit card in my wife’s name. Knowing she’s never had one, I figured it was a scam straight away. I kept the convo going just to see what info they wanted, and they said they’d come round later today to get my details. Told them I’d call back after checking with my wife about the card - obviously I hadn’t asked her yet.London11 yearsI got a message on my answerphone, sounded like broken English or something. The guy left 02081444171 as the number to call back, but when I checked, his actual number that the call came from wasn’t showing up, so I couldn’t block it. Bit annoying really.11 yearsJust got a call from some bloke about a claim on my Barclay credit card. Said he was from City County, London or something like that. Mentioned he’d be dropping off a cheque tonight or so. Can't say I’m convinced it’s legit though.BarclayCity CountyLondon11 yearsThis number keeps popping up with calls telling me there’s a cheque waiting for a PPI refund. They then tell you to call them back and end up asking for your bank info! It’s definitely a scam, and I worry that older folks might get tricked into handing over their details. Would be best to block it. http://www.unknownphone.com/https://www.unknownphone.com/phone/0208144417111 yearsGot a call from a guy named Mark, said he was with some government agency. He left me this number to call him back. Watch out, it's definitely a scam.Mark11 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming I'd get a big payout from my PPI via the London courts. Didn't bother calling him back - sounds dodgy to me. Watch out, everyone, it’s probably a scam!London11 yearsI got a call from this number, some bloke asking me to buy a paysafe card for 10% of £2,500 compensation from Alliance & Leicester. I said no thanks. Then he was back on the phone again, proper persistent!AllianceLeicester11 yearsIt seems there’s a bit of confusion here; the City County Court of London isn't a real entity. Additionally, compensation for mis-sold PPI is only given if you’ve already lodged a claim. You can't just expect a payout out of the blue!City County Court of London11 yearsI’ve been getting calls from this number here in the northeast where they’re hassling elderly folks to buy stamps at a nearby shop and then swap them for a cheque. Apparently, a bloke named Tom Pinchback is going door to door to make these exchanges happen.Tom PinchbackSubmit Your Own Report (020 8144 4171)
