Had the number (02) 8880 5602 call me asking about an accident I was involved in. Saying they were a motor vehicle accident company and I could be entitled to $1000 to $20000. Caller was a female and had a UK accent.

Just got call from this number didn't say where there were from, mumbled about a about motor vehicle accident! DONT keep talking to them as they are trying to get voice imprint from you! As the ATO and agencies are now using this technology to verify you. If they get this imprint and enough detail they will get your details changed on the system and any refunds you may get will go into a redirected bank account! SCAM SCAM SCAM

Call from this number saying I had reported a MVA. Told her (UK accent) her company needs to sack the assessors, who were obviously working on a commission basis, reporting false claims...

Husband just received a call from this number claiming to be following up on an MVA. When my husband asked where was the accident the male caller with UK accent advised his name would be wiped from the record

Had a call just now about an accident I was supposed to have in the last 6 months UK accent male. This is the second time I've had this call so I played along and said oh the one where the other guy died. He said I hope a car backs over you and you die and hung up. Strange I thought he was going to offer me big bucks?

They rang me up today on my mobile about a crash I was supposed to have had in the last 6 months. I had a similar call on my home phone about a month ago but in that case they didn't know my name and it was regarding a crash in the last 2 years. in both cases I told them I thought they were not legit and hung up. I haven't had a crash for years.

Don't care if this is a fake company posing as a Motor Accident Company, because the next time they ring I will be lettin them know i will be takin legal action & I will be also contactin scamwatch.gov.au to notify them of a fake company who are scaming people & if nothin is done after contacting scamwatch, I will be notifying the Australian Federal Police to hopefully have them jnvestigated

Just had a call and was prepared after looking up this site. I too had a woman with an English accent and claimed to be from the Motor Vehicle Bureau about an accident I'd had in the last 12 months. When I asked her what the purpose of her call was she said it was to provide feedback to the insurance company on how satisfied I was with the service, so I asked which insurance company? She said she didn't have that information, so when I asked her the date of said accident she repeated that it was in the last 12 months. So when I said that in Australia we didn't have a motor vehicle "Bureau" and that I hadn't had an accident so what did she really want she hung up on me!!!
