No response when I answered. Hung up.
Car finance scam, knew my name, never financed a car before.
Using the Apple Feature - Unknown Caller needs to provide a reason for calling me. They simply left a voicemail stating asking to speak to me. They knew my first name but did not elaborate any further.
They just said hello and said they were from PCP car finance department- I hung up
Again they had all my details which is very concerning. Is this a scam ?
Hung up when I answered
Once so far
Called this morning around 11-12. Asking if I had previously bought a car on finance. Hung up. They knew me by name, which is concerning.
