Got a call from this number on 02/02/2018 saying I owed some government money, like £3000 or something. They also mentioned a tax of £175 that had to be paid first using iTunes vouchers, which was ridiculous. Total SCAM alert! Don’t fall for this rubbish, report it to the police straight away. Ring 101 and do your bit to stop these scammers messing about.

Spoke to this number on 02/02/2018, and it’s a total SCAM. They said I owed £3000 to some GOV thing, then tried to get me to pay a £175 tax upfront with an iTunes card - what a joke. Really don’t get caught out by these scammers! Report it to the police by calling 101, it actually helps them track down these dodgy characters.

Got a call from this number, a bloke named Robert Cooper who had an Asian accent. He claimed he was calling from some government agency saying we were due £2500. When he asked for our bank details, we just said we wanted a cheque instead, just to mess about. Then he told us to buy a £100 iTunes voucher from Tesco and call back once we had it. They've phoned a few times since but I just ignored it lol. They must reckon everyone falls for this! This number’s definitely getting blocked soon!!!!

I can't believe this number is still active after so many people have reported it! These scammers pretending to be government officials are just taking advantage of folks. It’s outrageous and something really needs to be done about it fast. This kind of thing shouldn't be allowed to carry on, it’s definitely urgent and deserves a proper investigation.

I flagged this as ‘dangerous’ since lots of vulnerable folks get tricked by these calls. They pretend they’re from the Ministry of Justice, but it’s just a scam.

LOL they rang me earlier claiming I’d won £2500, giving me the typical nonsense about reference codes. Then they switched me over to another team for “checks” but told me I had to pay 5% tax via an iTunes voucher that some bloke at the door would stamp. From the get-go, I knew it was dodgy but played along to gather more details. They insisted on ID, saying the cheque couldn’t be cashed if the name didn’t match exactly. Honestly, nothing in life comes free and this was just a classic con.

Got a call earlier claiming I’d got £3500 back for some loan overpayment. The bloke said his name was Archy Andrews and he was with some government department. Apparently, a government lawyer was supposed to deliver a cheque right to my house. No way I’m falling for that. These dodgy calls from 02081448202 are just plain awful and need to be stopped. It’s crazy how many folks they’re tricking. With all the complaints, I don’t get how they’re allowed to keep running this scam.

Today I got a phone call from someone claiming to be Angela Allen from the Government Ombudsman about PPI claims. She said I’d got £2500 waiting for me and gave me some reference numbers to use when a solicitor supposedly visits my house tomorrow. I was told I’d need to pay £125 upfront by cheque before they’d hand over my payout. But when I started asking a lot of questions, she just dropped the call on me! Definitely a scam, so watch out for this kind of thing!

Got a call from someone with a weird accent, who said he was Steve Anderson from the Ministry of Justice. Apparently, I was due £2500 from some PPI stuff. Then he told me I had to pop into Tesco Express and get an iTunes voucher worth £125 - supposedly that was the tax on the £2500. After that, a solicitor named Julie Shaw said she’d ring back later with a cheque and some sort of stamp card, both needing to be paid into my bank. They said the £2500 cheque would clear and they’d take out the £125 fee. I tried suggesting I’d send them a cheque for the £125 once their cheque cleared but they shut me down, saying they couldn’t accept cash or cheques. It all seemed really dodgy to me.

Has anyone else had calls from this number? They said there’s some kind of PPI refund for me and even gave a reference and customer care number. I never gave them any info though. Sounds a bit dodgy to me!

I got a call from this number and when I asked which firm they were calling on behalf of, they just cut me off straight away. Pretty sure this is just another sales pitch scam. Definitely dont trust this number!

Just to add onto my previous message, this office is actually just the regulator and doesn’t handle any refunds. They mention there’s a 5% tax you gotta pay, but HMRC says unearned income gets taxed at 20%. Usually though, these refunds aren’t taxable since you've often already paid premium tax when you took out the policy or made the transaction. He also said he’d get back in touch the next day with more detailed info.

So this bloke called me, sounded Indian and said his name was Adam Smith. He told me I’m due £2500 from some old PPI claim. They seem to have info like your home address plus your mobile and landline numbers. They don’t actually know all the refunds you might have claimed before, but insisted they’re ringing on behalf of the Ministry of Justice.

Got a call saying I had a £2500 cheque waiting, but they kept telling me to buy an iTunes voucher to hand over to some solicitor supposed to turn up at my house within the hour. They even gave me a reference number and all that. Sounds dodgy as hell, so definitely don’t get caught out by it!

Got a call about PPI, they started asking who I was living with. When I questioned them, they got really rude. First they claimed it wasn’t my partner’s place, then said it was. Then they went on to say they were actually standing outside my house. Proper dodgy behaviour from them.

Got a call from a guy with an African accent claiming to be Paul Gibson from the tax department. He told me I was owed £2500 from some bank claim but needed to pay £125 tax first. Then he said I should buy an 'iTunes card' from W.H.Smith or somewhere like that. Later on, a woman called herself Mrs Julie Green, supposedly a solicitor. I told them they were talking rubbish and ended the call. Haven't heard a peep from them since!

Received a rather curious call this morning from someone identifying himself as Kelvin Bell, supposedly with the Gov Claims department, about a PPI reimbursement. Apparently, they’ve managed to secure a sum of £3,700 for me, which could be deposited directly into my bank or sent via cheque. Naturally, I decided to humour him, fully aware it was likely a ruse. When I mentioned I’d prefer the cheque, he seemed quite taken aback for a moment. He went on to say that a solicitor, named Linda Edwards, would be popping round to deliver the cheque around noon today, reference number 123GDK. He assured me there were no fees involved, except that I would need to fork out £185 for a tax card, which he amusingly spelled as ITUNES. At that point, I couldn’t help but chuckle. When he inquired about my laughter, I pointed out that it’s widely recognised as a con. He insisted it wasn’t a scam, but I made it clear that if they did show up with the cheque, I’d happily hand over the cash. At that, he abruptly hung up!

So this bloke rings up saying he’s from the Ministry of Justice. I told him straight up I wasn’t buying it - he was an Indian guy, not that it’s any of my business. Then he started whining about how I shouldn’t jump to conclusions over the phone, told me to #96 off and even called me a terrorist! I’m Asian myself, ha! What a weird encounter.
