Received a call but went to answer machine and they didn't leave a message. Internet searched it as Cheshire Magistrates Court. There's no reason they should be calling and the phone number is obviously being used by low-lifes to scam so the number has been blocked.
Just had a automated call from this number number crime a NI crime. Obviously a scam, no asking for me by name or giving me my NI number, just an automated call which I promptly blocked. This number has been hijacked to Cheshire magistrates court and is a typical scam call.

Obviously some scammers have spoofed this number. Just got a similar call about NI number, and I'll be up before the beak unless I ACT NOW!
Called about some bogus crime and threatened serious action if I didn’t respond.
Telling me something about my national insurance number and that ignoring this call was an offence. Number relates to South Cheshire Magistrates Court, apparently. Ended call and blocked number
