Oldham County Court 01612405000 Scam Calls

I got the same call but I did not answer.

I have had the same missed call twice, was wondering why a court way down south would be phoning me away up on the North Coast of Scotland, so googled and ended up here. I will answer them next time and lead them a merry dance lol

they have just tried to call me. its a shame I worked for the courts as part of the closing down of this building. lol

I've had one of these calls today. Blocked and reported it to the police

I had a call from this number too. Fortunately, I didn’t answer it and checked the details online ( phone number and info on Oldham Court).

I know it relates to a car hire from several years back and the subsequent, totally unjustified demands for payment after returning the car. The car hire company has employed a debt collection agency near Oldham.

the car hire company, the debt collection agency and now this fake imitation of Oldham County Court are all villainous. What a world we live in.

I had a lucky escape!

I had call from same

I had a call saying the same thing..

Just had a call from Oldham County Court, Automated message said if I didn't speak to one of their officers they would suspend my national insurance number.
I dont think the courts work like that.

I have just had the same call hearty had a heart attack when I saw county courts ring realised it was a scam and googled it

Just got a call from the same number, it is a scam, Oldham County Court is closed. 0161 290 4200 is their actual number. As I. Live in the South it was easy to.pick up that it was a scam

I blocked the number and they still try and call

Also happened to my husband today, 31 August 2021. Told him he had an arrest warrant out on him and all his assets were frozen - he supposedly owed £1999.50 due to unpaid taxes - but agent couldn't tell us when they were due from and refused to give any details. When I pressed him for specifics he hung up

This number rang me half an hour ago. I couldn't get to the phone, but as I was expecting an important call from the North, thought this could be it.
I rang it back and the recorded message which does indeed sound official said I had reached Manchester civil justice centre! It put me on hold, so I assume the number is real.
So I then punched the number into Google and arrived here. 🤔
I guess it's the same as when scammers use local numbers to you to make it look like a kosher call and they're not.

Thank you. I almost called them back but couldn't think of any reason they would have called me

Yes it's a scam. I spoke to a bailiff from the court and their system got hacked. Personally I love scams. You keep them on the line and give them dummy card details or fake amazon gift card numbers. It's fun. Once kept a scammer busy for a week with an amazon scam. If you're wasting their time, you're potentially stopping them scamming more.

HI I duno who to ask but they phoned me today and I give them my name and national insurance number but that's all they told me people have been trying to open bank accounts in my name. I said is this a scam she said she is officer..... and give me her bage or whatever number.
I'm stupid at times, is something really bad going to happen now.

Yes it's a scam; you have to phone your bank and the fraudulent team and get it logged

I received a call from them I called them back to speak to someone and said I will call the relevant person on regards to my national insurance followed by ill contact the police on this he said why am I wasting his time and then hung up. It is a scam don't fall for the the number coming up as a county court.

Ýes the courts number is compromised. If you ever get anyone on the phone asking for bank details, tell them to whistle. Not even your bank calls you to ask for bank details.

I just had the same call, just hung up.. hope the b****rds get caught
