Car finance - got aggy with me when i refused to give my DoB, she said she already knows it. SO i asked her to tell me my DoB and i'll validate - we told me she was just going to hang up. She was true to her word.

They are dangerous scammers who phish out our details and the service providers we are with. They then pretend to be those service providers and scam citizens into debt trap contracts that bleeds every penny from your bank accounts while doing so by hiding behind many cloned companies they set up on companies House website. If they should every ring again, ask them for their names & the company's name, address and registration number then check them out and usually they have hundreds of different companies that they are linked to. To find this information, go into Google and type in: 1) Companies House search - click on this 2) After clicking on Companies House search, click in the rectangular box, then type the company's name, or the person's name or the company registration number and the companies with those names will come up, some or cloned & dormant (not trading) so they are using those to commit the frauds while using direct debit to drain money from citizens' bank accounts.
