This number shows on mobile as Ebbsfleet which is a town near me. The young Scottish lady asked for me by my name and said she was calling from R K Legal and she was in charge of closing down cases today and she was calling about my accident that I had within the last 2 years (I have not had one) which my mobile has been registered against. Before 'closing' the case, she asked if I was aware of the entitlements with regards to this case. I told her I hadn't had an accident in the last 2 years and she started to wrap up the conversation pretty quickly but I got in there first and asked her for more details as someone could be claiming under my name and there could be a possible fraud happening here - she quickly stated that she did not say that there was any fraud but I said there could be possible fraud here and I wanted further details at which point she clean hung up on me.
I know you can receive these calls from vermin trying to 'assist' in fraudulent claims which in turn we all pay for in our premium renewals (nobody will ever lose out other than us, consumers) - but it did intrigue me that she said within the last 2 years and I have not had a claim within this period or anything close to that. Is this a new crash-for-cash type scheme - have they purchased a list of previous crash victims and are using their details to make completely fake claims....?
