Had a call from someone pretending to be a solicitor asking about a car crash I supposedly had recently. Definitely sounded like one of those cold calls trying to get info.

Got a call from someone saying they were lawyers wanting to talk about a car crash I supposedly was in. Bit odd since I’ve never been in one. I just ended the call and looked up the number on whocalledme afterwards. So pleased I did. No time to waste with nonsense like that.

Got a call from 02081487556 today telling me I'd been in some accident. Told them the only accident I've ever had was my own mistake and that was sorted nearly a decade ago. They seemed a bit rattled and just ended the call.

Heads up! These Indian telemarketers are total scammers, making up lies left and right. Best thing to do? Just BLOCK them straight away!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Nationwide, said it was about a road traffic accident involving me. Pretty sure it was a scam.

I got a call from 020 8148 7556, a bloke claiming I’d been part of a crash within the last year and a half, but said it wasn’t my fault. He even insisted it was me who had reported it. I was a bit annoyed, and while I was getting riled up, the guy, who sounded like he was Asian, just gave up and hung up on me. Sorted!

For the past three weeks, I’ve been getting annoying calls from numbers like these. Every time, the person on the line speaks with a very noticeable Indian accent. The calls all follow the same script, trying to lure you into a chat about a supposed car crash. The numbers vary a bit but they all seem to come from London. Best advice: don’t answer and just end the call immediately if you catch that accent.

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent, he knew my first name and said he was from some place called 'Road to recovery'. Asked me if I’d received any money for injuries from a car crash. Bit cheeky since I never had an accident. Told him off pretty good in plain English, no messing about.

I picked up the call but there was silence on the line, no one spoke. After I said 'Hello?' a few times, they just ended the call. I put up a listing on Gumtree not too long ago, sounds like that’s probably how they found my number, based on what others have mentioned here.

I just wanna say, some of the racist stuff in the comments here is totally uncalled for. I’m mixed race - half Indian and half English - and honestly, I hate scam calls just as much as anyone else. They’re so irritating and illegal, but mentioning things like ‘dodgy Indians’ or ‘proper Anglo Saxons’ is just unnecessary and pretty offensive.

Today, I got a call where they used my name from Gumtree. (I always keep different names handy to spot these dodgy Indian scammers.) They were telling the usual story about a ‘car crash’ to try and get loans or rip off cards with your info. Pretty typical identity theft rubbish.

Think they snag your digits off Gumtree or sommat. Told right off as a scam with that dodgy foreign voice. Just put them on hold and let the telly do the talking, haha.

I just got a call from this number and the person on the other end had a pretty heavy accent, definitely not British. When I asked how they got my number, they said it was from something called the UK National Survey of Car Accidents. But when I pressed for more info, like a website or who runs it, they couldn't give me any proper details. After a bit of back and forth, they just hung up on me!

Got a call from this number earlier today, a lady with an Asian accent. She said she was following up on my accident compensation claim and mentioned 'Road to Recovery UK'. I know that’s a legit firm, but it wasn’t actually them she was from. When I asked how they got my info, she claimed my insurer had passed it on. Then, when I asked which insurance company, she refused to say, claiming she wasn’t allowed. Total scam from start to finish. I told her I’d wait to get the proper paperwork through the post like I was told before. She sounded quite annoyed. I just hung up after that.

Like someone else mentioned here, they probably grab your number from Gumtree and then attempt some sort of scam.

Think they must have grabbed my number off Gumtree or something. This guy rings up saying I’d been in some accident. I told him I’d hit a bin lorry and it went kaboom. He goes, “oh, not that one...” then he says “the little scrape you had in the car park?” I said, “yeah, that one blew up too.” He got proper hyped for a sec, then said “can’t believe you’re taking the piss with me” and just ended the call. What a twat.

Got a call from some bloke named Ollie who said he’s with ‘road to recovery’. He was going on about me or someone in my family reporting a car crash, saying their firm’s in southwest London. I just told him nicely to sod off.

i got a call from some accident claims team but i havent had any accident! sounds like a scam to me. i just blocked the number and waiting to see who calls next. its weird bc the calls always come right after i have a hospital appointment - feels like theyre using NHS info to find me. really dodgy if you ask me.

Phone rang from this number today but I just let it go to voicemail. After seeing these comments, I’m really glad I didn’t pick up. Had another call like this last week where they kept asking if I'd had an accident or something. Definitely going to block it now!

Got a call about some accident they claimed I’d been in, which I definitely haven't, lucky me. They mentioned a place that’s actually my hometown but said they couldn’t verify my car’s reg number because of data privacy rules. When I asked them how they got my info, they just ended the call. Suspicious behaviour if you ask me.

Some bloke rang me claiming he was a doctor asking why I missed my appointment. I had no idea what he was on about and told him he must have dialed the wrong number. He said sorry and then hung up.

Had a call today from someone claiming there was an accident involving my car, told me it wasn’t my fault and pushed me to make a claim. Felt like one of those car insurance scams, they seem to prey on folks hoping to scam the insurance firms. But it’s funny, these scams usually just end up making honest people pay more when it’s time to renew their policies. Who ends up footing the bill? Yep, it’s us - the customers. Waste of time and money because some greedy people think they can get away with it. Really hope no one falls for that “somebody bumped your car” trick!
