Absolute scam alert! They kept saying if I share my birthday, I’d get an £8000 cheque by tomorrow. Sure, sounds totally genuine!

Got a call from someone saying I’d won over £8,000 from a PPI claim. I don’t know anything about making a claim like that, so I reckon it’s just a scam.

Watch out everyone, got a call from 0800368 6372 claiming my PPI was approved - I never even applied for one! Seriously, what’s the TPS doing letting these dodgy numbers ring us up? Proper scammy stuff.

Got a ring earlier today from someone saying I owed £8000. They wanted my birthday and asked if I was retired, plus the name of my bank. I lied about the bank but gave them my birthday, which was daft. They said I’d hear from them again the next day and that a cheque would be dropped off that I’d have to sign for. I told them I reckoned it sounded like a scam, but they kept saying they weren’t scammers.

I got a call saying it was about some PPI refund and that they’d send a cheque to my house on Monday. Sounded a bit dodgy to me.

Just got a call from 08003686372, some daft scammer from India telling me I should be getting a PPI refund. Total nonsense.

Got a call from someone saying he's Alex, telling me my PPI claim was successful and that I was getting a cheque for £8700 sent from the Bank of England through a solicitor. When he asked for my date of birth, I just wouldn't give it. It seemed like a complete scam to me. Ended up blocking the number straight away.

They said I could claim £8000, but it turned out to be a total PPI rip-off.

Received a phone call from 08003686372 claiming I was owed a PPI refund of £8700.00, sounded suspicious straight away. They wanted me to give them personal info like my date of birth and bank details. I gave them a fake DOB and made up a bank account. Then when they asked for my email, I told them I don’t use the internet! They kept pressing me for answers but I just ended the call. Honestly, ignoring and cutting off calls like this is the only way to handle these dodgy callers.

Got a call out of the blue saying I'd been approved for a PPI claim and might get a cheque for around £8000. They asked loads of personal stuff like my date of birth, where I live, and even which bank I use. Their story was the cheque, coming from the Bank of England and supposedly delivered by a solicitor, might bounce if they didn’t have my bank details. I mean, why on earth does the bank name matter to prevent that? Feels awful that some folks might actually fall for this kind of thing.

A number showing as +44 800 368 6372 called me and somehow they already had my full name, address and phone number! They asked for my birthday too but I refused to share it. They claimed it was needed for security stuff and told me I was due £8750 from some PPI thing back in 2017. Didn’t trust it and just ended the call straight away.

Somebody with a strange accent called saying I was due about £8000 from a PPI claim. I didn’t buy it and just ended the call.

Beware of this number, they pretend to be checking your PPI claim but it’s just a scam.

I got a call from this number claiming I was owed PPI compensation. They said they were from some firm called Edward Hayes, but when I tried calling back, it seemed like loads of different companies were linked to that number. I didn’t share any of my details with them, and then they just ended the call.

08003686372, watch out for this one, seems like a scam to me. They claimed I had to pay £75 for some 'safe card voucher' to receive a huge payout of £8,766.00 into my bank. I was confused by what the man was saying, so I asked if he could speak to my mate instead. But the moment my friend answered, he just hung up on us. Just thought I’d share this. My number’s 07765645883. Diana Sloan.

Got a call mentioning some iva and money I could claim back as compensation. Sounds like it’s worth checking out to put a stop to it.

I just got a message from someone named Nickeol Turcotte claiming there was suspicious activity on my PayPal and saying £869.99 had been taken for ARGOS GIFT CARDS. I didn’t authorise this at all. They told me to call +448003686377 right away if I wasn’t responsible. I didn’t fall for it and I’ve marked the transaction as declined and reported it to PayPal straight away.

My laptop got locked with a message saying if I don’t call this number, it’ll stay blocked. I called back the number and some guy named Abnell answered, claiming he was from Microsoft Defender. He was calling from Canada and tried to sell me Defender software with prices ranging from £99 up to £647. I said no to everything. Then he threatened to charge me anyway and kept dropping off the call a few times. Honestly couldn’t tell if he was trustworthy or not, but it felt like a total scam to me. Just a heads up to be careful.

Stay away from these Microsoft scammers, they’re not legit. Best to just ignore and don’t even think about replying.
