    Hi (Removed by Forum Team),
    Hope you are well.

     I can understand your concern that you faced so many scammers in the past that's why you are really worried about all this but believe me, if  I have to do any sort of scam I will look for a client who has a good amount of money in their account, not the one who already struggling with debts please don't mind but this is just to explain to you that don't hesitate to look for help as i can't do any sort of scam with information about your debts.
    Please, believe me, I will never let you down.

    I am ready to provide all the proofs you need because I know I am legit.

    Hi (Removed by Forum Team),
    Hope you are well.

    Alright, I am booking your appointment with the debt management department. They will contact you from their end and will do a hard credit search on your name to find out how much and to whom you owe exactly. So please help me with the best possible time to contact you. And the number we have is  (Removed by Forum Team). Are you using the same number?

    Hope you are well.

    I can understand your situation and so, I am particularly keen to avoid any legal action I would therefore like you to repay an amount every month so We will consolidate all your debts and set up a payment plan between you and your creditors in which you have to pay only one single affordable payment every month which is gonna cover every single penny which you owe.

    Would you be interested in anything like that?

    Hi Kerry, you've de-anonymised yourself if that is your real surname.
    Statement of Affairs (SOA) link: https://www.lemonfool.co.uk/financecalculators/soa.php

    For free, non-judgemental debt advice, try: Stepchange or National Debtline. Beware fee charging companies with similar names.
  • I just received this exact same email. Same companies listed, same amount due as monthly payment and also came from a Gmail account.

    I work for one of the UK's biggest debt advice charities and even I was taken aback at first. This is definitely a scam. Report the email then delete.
