    Hi, I've just received a call from a company called Full Financials. They claim to be working on behalf of the Justice & Protection dept, to help get money back for missold mortages. He was very convincing, taking me through government websites, confirming their claim no with them is CRM12580 & after answering a series of questions, claimed we could be owed over £16k.
    We just needed to make a small payment of £2k upfront to start the letigation team off. Which we would get back regardless if we won or lost the claim.

    Has anyone else had any experience with this company? Are they legit? We cant afford to lose that kind of money & this all seemed to be too good to be true.

    Can anyone shed any light??

    Worrying that you have to come on here and ask!

    Jesus wept.

    Oldest scam in the book. Ask yourself why it costs £2,000 to write a few letters? Target thousands of people and disappear. Its like Nigerian scams except you havent won the lottery
