Default Strange telephone call

How odd. I was a witness to a car accident last week. I have had 3
calls/texts already about my claim! I managed to keep one woman on the phone
for 15 minutes before she realised I was making my injuries up and was not
involved in an accident.


Did you at any point give permission for your details to be passed
around?

If not, I suspect this selling of data (whether you're a witness or
directly involved) is illegal. You have no business relationship with
them and the Data Protection Registrar really ought to look into this.

IANAL - but the uk.legal nest of vipers might be worth poking.

I didn't feel that way when several firms contacted me to try and get me to make
a personal injury claim. After all, I had nothing to lose. As it happens, I didn't want to peruse
a claim.
