2 yearsI got this email claiming to be a "Payment Confirmation" for an iPad Pro I apparently bought on Ebay, which I definitely didn’t. It had a customer service number included, but it all seems pretty dodgy to me.6 yearsmy mum, who’s 85, just got a phone call from some Steven Walker saying something about a rebate from the Halifax Building Society, about mortgage stuff. it’s not the first time he’s rung her either. then she was basically ordered to send a cheque for £185.50 to a bloke called Kenneth Hughes in Bristol. sounds like a dodgy scam targeting elderly people to me. luckily she rang me straight away to make sure it was legit, so thank god no money was sent. watch out for this kinda thing, it’s dodgy.Steven WalkerHalifax Building SocietyKenneth HughesBristol6 yearsThey claimed to be from a clean management company, but the call was all fuzzy and hard to hear.6 yearsGot a call supposedly from the financial services authority (which I think doesn’t exist anymore) about some insurance tied to an old mortgage of mine.Financial Services Authority6 yearsGot a call from this number about supposedly recovering mis-sold PPI that I’d supposedly been checked for already. The guy knew plenty about my lenders but I didn’t give him any current bank info at all. Not sure if it was legit or not! The caller seemed to have all the data needed to dig into my past credit history. I definitely didn’t share any new account details though! And he never requested anything I hadn’t already given out before.7 yearsthis number rang me up claiming I was due some money from an insurance policy linked to a loan I got from Halifax back in 2008. they said I should have gotten it ages ago but the insurance firm went under, and now the Ministry of Justice is sorting it out. sounds like total nonsense to me. I’d say stay well clear of this number as it’s not to be trusted.HalifaxMinistry of Justice7 yearsGot a call a moment ago from someone saying they were with the Ministry of Justice, mentioned it had something to do with a claim I made.Ministry of Justice7 yearsJust this morning, I had the same experience. As soon as I mentioned I’d verify with my bank, the caller suddenly ended the call!7 yearsTotally a scam. Got a call on a UK landline with a English man on the phone. They phoned my mum, who’s quite old, and somehow knew loads about her old Halifax mortgage. They claimed they had a cheque waiting for her PPI payout but needed her to send over £427 first to unlock it. Thankfully she didn’t fall for it and told them no way. It’s awful they’re preying on older folks, but what’s really worrying is how they got hold of all that Halifax info in the first place?UKHalifax7 yearsI just rang this number. I work as the manager of a sheltered housing community, and this bloke keeps ringing a vulnerable woman who he’s tricked several times before. Luckily, he always falls flat when I answer. I told him straight up that he’s a horrible, nasty person and that someone needs to put a stop to him.7 yearsMy elderly dad got swindled out of almost £3500 by this creep called Steven Walker. Luckily, I stumbled upon the number online, saw loads of warnings, and figured out what was going on.Steven Walker7 yearsMy 81 year old mum got a call from someone claiming her bank had scammed her over old insurance policies. When she mentioned it sounded like a PPI scam, he asked if she'd been drinking or on medication. She said yes, thinking he was a PPI caller. Then he went on to tell her she sounded like "rotting meat". Absolutely lovely bloke!7 yearsI kept ringing the neighbour that lives right beside me, over and over again.7 yearsI got a call from some guy named Stephen Walker claiming I was due a refund for PPI on my mortgage. He told me I had to send a cheque to Mrs Brenda Pallentino at WS8 6BB. Sounded dodgy to me!Stephen WalkerBrenda Pallentino7 yearsSomeone tried to con my 97 year old grandad claiming to be from the Met Police.Metropolitan Police7 yearsGot a call on this line from someone called Steven Walker, claiming to be with City Financial Services. He told me my mortgage company owed me £2854, but first I had to send a cheque for £185 to a David Gifford in Barry to get the cash. There was no paperwork or anything official, so I looked up the number online and found this. Cheers for the info!Steven WalkerCity Financial ServicesDavid GiffordBarry8 yearsMy dad ended up losing close to £10k because some bloke called Stephen Walker tricked him with a fake PPI scheme.Stephen Walker8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Stephen Walker, trying to pull a PPI scam on me. Ended up losing loads of money - proper con artist. Watch out for that name!Stephen Walker8 yearsMy 86 year old mum got two calls from someone claiming to be her bank. They said she was owed some money but needed to pay an admin fee before getting it. Thankfully she didn’t get tricked, but it did frighten her as they already had her bank info and where she lives.8 yearsI got a call to my grandma saying she had to pay £2980 to get some kind of refund from legal and general. Totally threw her off, and she ended up asking the family for the cash because they were pushing her to send it that same day! This is definitely a SCAM. I’m going to report them to the police for sure.Legal & General8 yearsI got a call that seemed dodgy. It was some kind of robot voice claiming it was HMRC. Definitely felt like a scam to me.HMRC8 yearsI got a call earlier today from this number. The guy on the line was pretty polite and started talking about a mortgage we had ages ago. He mentioned some insurance with Nationwide Building Society and said we might be entitled to some money back. Seemed quite genuine at first.Nationwide Building SocietySubmit Your Own Report (020 8638 8576)
