Scam/Fraud
08 Sep 2022

Just had a call from someone claiming to be from the 'State Protection Service' on 01970607669 and a man claiming he was calling due to changes in Government Legislation, as he was giving his spiel i googled the phone number and judging by the hundreds of searches for the number and amount of comments since the calls started on the 1st August 2022 i'm guessing it's the start of yet another scam campaign so beware people.

Like the other comments, a man with a very authoritive voice called to talk about future care home fees and did I have anything in place to protect my home. I said yes I have and ended the call.

'State Protection Service' - really? Obviously some sort of a scam - asked how he obtained my ex directory phone number and he hung up.

Didn't catch the name of the firm he was calling from but he started talking about people having to sell their houses because of the current financial situation. I put the phone down - obviously a scam!

Call from a young man who said he was from ‘State Protection Service’ and started asking questions about whether I had plans in place to protect the equity in my home against care home fees, I asked for the company's full address so I could check the company out, he said it was based in London. I asked again for the FULL ADDRESS and he ended the phone call ??
