No win no fee solicitors Blackburn warn people to be wary of cold callers

Personal injury solicitors Blackburn would like to echo a recent statement from the Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) that told people to be wary of cold callers.

A reputable no win no fee solicitor Blackburn or the CAB itself do not cold call people, so any unsolicited text messages or phone calls claiming to be from solicitors or a CAB advisor should be treated with extreme scepticism - the CAB said such calls will almost certainly be scams.

Some of the things scammers text or call people about include help with debt problems, loan offers or personal injury compensation claims. The scammer will not actually provide these services, but could instead be trying to find out your personal information so they can sell it to criminals, or could even be trying to find out your financial details so they can steal your money or your identity.
Therefore, personal injury solicitors Blackburn strongly advise people:


  •  Do not confirm any personal details or volunteer any personal information
  • Call Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040 or visit them online on http://www.actionfraud.org.uk/report_fraud to report the call
  • If you do have debt problems or want to make a compensation claim, speak with a no win no fee solicitors 
Bolton or call the CAB itself to try to reach some resolution

Citizens Advice Bureaus across the UK have received reports of individuals calling people or texting then to offer help with compensation claims or debt problems. The personal injury solicitors Bolton a person needs to make a compensation claim are not going to unexpectedly call them out of the blue - people who have been injured in an accident they are not to blame for will have to find a no win no fee solicitor Bolton themselves if they are to receive the skilled representation they need for their case.

For free, impartial and independent advice about any matter, the Citizens Advice Bureau has locations all over the country and has a huge number of talented advisers who can help anyone out.
