Scam alert: Opus debt collection harassment - +44 141 428 3990 (0141 428 3990)

This call was a 'debt recovery' scam, attempting to deceive me into paying a fake debt.

Despite blocking this number, the company still manages to leave voicemails every few days. They never mention my name, and if they state the company I allegedly owe money to, it's completely garbled (which is likely, as most of their messages are just mumbling). This seems to be a scam or phishing attempt.

Regarding debt collection

Plötsligt får jag samtal och sms tre gånger om dagen utan att ha fått några brev eller e-post. Jag är glad att jag kollade här och har blockerat numret.

Ho ricevuto diverse chiamate da questo numero e l'ho bloccato poiché risulta appartenere a Spark Energy, che non è il mio fornitore di energia. Anche se l'ho bloccato, continuo a ricevere messaggi vocali e ora anche SMS da un numero mobile, che affermano di essere urgenti e si riferiscono a Opus con un numero di riferimento. Ho cercato di chiamare il numero, ma non è riconosciuto e non trovo informazioni su Opus che lo menzionino

I can verify this is a debt collection agency. When I answered, I connected with someone immediately. They asked for Mr. Patel, to which I responded that they had the wrong number as he doesn’t live here. Apparently, Mr. Patel has given my number to Opus. They apologized and said they would remove my number from their system. So, it's not a scam; it's Mr. Patel who's scamming the companies.

This number constantly contacts me, claiming to have an urgent matter to discuss. However, I am aware that it is associated with a debt company, and since I have no debts, I am certain it is a scam. My financial record is clear, and I owe nothing to anyone.

An automated voicemail was left, requesting a callback, but I chose to ignore it.

Enligt dem hade vår autogirobetalning stoppats och de samlade in pengar. Personen hade en kraftig skotsk accent. Jag har även anmält detta till Ofcom och TPS.

Numerous calls and texts have been made to collect a debt that is not mine, which is extremely frustrating

They ring and leave messages on my answering machine.

My housemate received several texts stating, "This message is for *her name*, please contact Opus limited on *o1414283990* regarding reference *reference number* urgently. Thank you" and "Is this a bad time? I must speak with you urgently. Please call Opos on 0141 428 3990 quoting *same reference number*. Thankyou." She never shares her number online or with companies, so it's unclear how they got it.

I keep receiving text messages from them, asking me to call back with a provided reference number. They used to call me, trying to get my personal info without explaining the nature of the debt (which I don’t even have). They won’t tell me who the debt is owed to. For some reason, I can’t block their texts, and they keep coming every other week. The woman who called insisted we had to discuss “it” (whatever that means), but first, I’d have to provide my address, date of birth, and phone number. When I refused to discuss it, she kept pushing, saying I really had to. It’s madness! If they were genuine debt collectors, they’d contact HMRC or the local council to get my address and send a letter.

Opus debt collection agency contacting me regarding a bill. They were professional about it. Sorted it out quickly.

Spark energy has no affiliation with this company, which has been emailing me daily regarding a debt I dont actualy owe, I've blocked their number after they requested my date of birth.

My credit record is clean and I'm vigilant about monitoring it. Despite this, I've been receiving unwarranted calls and texts, prompting me to investigate further. The messages instructed me to contact a different number, which I declined to do. I've never disclosed my personal details to anyone, making this situation even more suspicious. Given their alleged role as a debt collection agency, it's concerning that they may have access to my address. Following advice, I'll await formal correspondence from them, addressed to me, outlining the purpose of their communication.
