Left half a message on my voicemail. Automated voice telling me I owed money so press 1. Haha as though I’m going to take advice from a recording.
Scam “you had a car accident” cut them off.
“You had a bump in your car…” tried to be very persistent when I told them to remove my number from their lists and not call me, acting very confused “but it says here you…” 100% this is spam or more likely a scam /fraud
I got a guy called from some insurance company that someone had a bump into my car in the last year. I don’t remember that.
