Calls from +447700169407 are almost always linked to messages that claim to be from My Claim Group and ask you to upload a passport or driving licence to process an alleged insurance or finance claim. In most reports the texts arrive early in the morning, use your first name and provide a link rather than a land‑line. Treat any request for personal ID via an SMS link as a potential scam – verify the story by calling the company on a number you find on their official website, not the one in the message. Delete the link, block the number and report it to the Information Commissioner’s Office or your bank if you’ve already shared details.
Received a message from this number requesting I upload a photo of my passport or driving licence to continue. I questioned the need, noting I hadn't supplied such documents when obtaining the loan, and warned it could enable identity theft. They offered a phone discussion if desired.
Linked to car loans from 2007. I blocked them after they demanded proof of my signature via a scan of my driving licence or passport with photo. The SMS reminder revealed the mobile number. Legit firms use landlines.
Rang once or twice, yet they've been sending texts for months about an alleged car insurance claim for someone called David. Now they're requesting ID verification. I'm not David. Likely a scam.
From My Claim, 07700169407, specialists in mis-sold car finance. I've requested they verify if I was mis-sold, so they'll require ID proof to query the lender. Lots of folks have initiated claims via different firms; this is the primary claims handler.

Watch out for this scam, folks.
Received a text at 7am on a Saturday asking for my photo ID for a claim I don't know about. They used my first name, not Mr., and said they were from My Claim. It’s clearly a scam with more warning signs than a traffic light!
Similar to others, I got a text asking for passport or driving licence details, supposedly from my claim group. Naturally, I checked here first and didn’t send any information. Appreciate the warnings.
