Fraud- trying to convince me I could claim car finance. Do not engage with these people they are scammers. .

User reported 0161 526 8796 as Harassing

Did not answer as I always think of anyone is genuine they will leave a message. These call me several times a week and always hang up. Thanks to previous reviewers am now going to block

Caller with a strong, almost impenetrable Indian accent knew my surname and vehicle registration and type. He informed me that they could help me reclaim "incorrectly sold car loan finance". I don't use finance to buy vehicles which pretty much invalidated their call. They informed me that they must have incorrect information on their database and would remove my number so I don't get anymore calls. I informed them that I didn't believe that as their call centre would probably be calling me soon purporting to be from my mobile phone company or HMRC. Number blocked, but as they have my details anyway they will probably call me from a different number next time.
