"Today at 11:23 I got a call that I think was a fraud. The first call was from 07791502716. The person calling said he had been told to pick up my car because the manufacturer was recalling it. When I asked what the name of his company was, he didn't want to tell me. He said he would speak to his boss instead. I told him to get his boss to call me himself. Soon after, I had a second call from 07889361799. This person calling said he was the first manโs boss. I asked why the dealership or Jaecoo had not contacted me about any recall. He was aggressive and said that he could not read minds. I ended the call then, as I thought it was a scam to steal my car. I had not had any official recall messages from the manufacturer or the dealership. I am reporting both numbers so they can be looked into as I think it was a vehicle theft scam."
