I 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.

my 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.

Claimed to be a reputable management company, but the call quality was poor and the connection was all muddled up.

Got 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.

I had a call from this number claiming they were able to recover mis-sold PPI from previous years! I mentioned the lenders I had dealt with in the past but withheld all my current banking information! I'm still in two minds about the legitimacy of the call! The person on the line seemed to have access to all the necessary information regarding my past credit history. However, I made sure not to divulge any of my new banking details whatsoever! He never requested any personal information that he wasn't already privy to!

this 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.

I had a rather similar experience this morning. As soon as I mentioned that I'd verify the details with my bank, he promptly cut the call!

Totally 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?

I just had a rather unpleasant phone call. I'm the manager at a sheltered accommodation facility, and it seems this person was attempting to reach out to a vulnerable lady whom he has deceived on multiple occasions. However, he didn’t get very far this time. I confronted him directly, telling him what a despicable and wicked individual he is, and that his actions must be put to an end.

This dodgy character, Steven Walker, has swindled my elderly dad out of close to £3500. It wasn't until I did a bit of digging online and discovered past complaints that I realised what was happening.

I received a rather alarming call directed at my 81-year-old mum, who was led to believe she’d been conned by her bank regarding some insurance policies from yonks ago. When she remarked that the voice resembled a PPI dealer, he rather rudely queried if she was under the influence or had been drinking. Upon confirming that she thought he was indeed a PPI representative, his response was downright appalling: “Well, you sound like decaying meat to me!” What an utterly delightful character!

I received a call from a chap named Stephen Walker, who mentioned that there’s a refund owed to me for PPI linked to my mortgage. He insisted that I need to send a cheque to a Mrs Brenda Pallentino, at the address WS86BB.

I received a call from a chap named Steven Walker claiming to represent City Financial Services. He mentioned that I was due a refund of £2854 from my mortgage provider, but to kick things off, I had to send a £185 cheque to a David Gifford in Barry. There was absolutely no documentation provided to back this up. So, I decided to look up the number and stumbled upon this site. Cheers for the assistance!

It has come to my attention that an individual by the name of Stephen Walker has been involved in dubious activities, having conned my father out of around £10,000 in a PPI deception. Absolutely disgraceful!

This individual goes by the name Stephen Walker, but don’t be fooled - he's nothing but a fraudulent PPI conman. He'll spin his web of deception and swindle you out of a hefty sum. Be on your guard! - Caller: Stephen Walker

My elderly mother, who is 86, received a couple of calls claiming to be representatives from her bank. They mentioned that she was entitled to some money but insisted that she needed to pay an administrative fee before anything could be processed. Thankfully, she recognised it for the scam it was and didn't get taken in, but it certainly rattled her a bit as they had her bank information and home address.

My poor aunt, who’s not exactly sprightly anymore, received a call saying she needed to wire £2980 to sort out a refund from Legal & General. It utterly bewildered her! She ended up turning to our family for help, as they were pressuring her to make the transfer straight away. Totally dodgy! I’ll be contacting the police about this.

I received a call this morning from this number. The gentleman on the other end was quite courteous. He started discussing an old mortgage we had, mentioning that we apparently had an insurance policy with Nationwide Building Society, and that there was some money we could potentially reclaim. Quite intriguing, I must say!
