A new cold caller has been brought to our attention and they are using the name of Sure Legal.
This is one of those cases where a dubious cold caller is using the name of a real company, in order to confuse consumers who try to do a bit of research.
But the only coincidence is the name, Sure Legal, because the contact details and offered services are completely different.
The agents from Sure Legal present themselves as Sarah Porter or Suzanne Wilson
Sarah/ Suzanne from the fake Sure Legal explains that there has been a court case at the end of last year against the consumers’ holiday club. This varies between DWVC, ILG or Club Class.
Money seems to have been rewarded to all the people who bought into this Club membership and this money is currently being held in a Trustee Account.
For a upfront fee of £695 the consumer can take up the services of Sure Legal to get their awarded money transferred into their account.
No further details are given and all the consumer has is the telephone number 01274792844
No email, no documented proof to back up the statement of this supposed claim and money to be paid out nothing.
Please note that there have not been any court cases where people without knowing this are awarded money out of the blue.
Do not pay ever money to cold callers like this fake Sure Legal, for as plausible as they may sound because we are afraid you will not see the money back.
If Sara, Suzanne or whoever from the fake Sure Legal has contacted you already we would like to hear from you.
I’m embarrassed to say I’ve been scammed.Suzzann Wilson has been in constant touch with me by telephone over the last 5 weeks ,each time attempting to reassure me with a plausible excuse, which I’m ashamed to say I fell for.This person has a midlands accent and is heartless and ruthless,I suppose I’ve lost my money,is there any come back ?
Yes – my father has been targeted by this particular crew. Also using the pseudonym Susanne Cook. They appear to have targeted a Conveyancing Solicitors in Sidcup, to use as their legitimate cover. The genuine company appears to be called RG Law operating from 25 Sidcup High Street. Sure Legal Ltd are requesting money to be paid to the Personal Account of a Mr E.N.J Howell. Luckily Dad (71) doesn’t have internet banking and asked me to make the payment. Suspecting the scam I’ve done some research and come across this very useful post. Thank you and keep up the good work.
