Receiving a text message quoting my renewal number, supposedly from the AA, was concerning, especially since the provided phone number was not recognized when I tried to call back. This incident raises data breach concerns and has eroded my trust, making me hesitant to renew with them. If they call, I will inform them that we are aware of the scam.
AA renewal calls – genuine or scam?

Expert Opinion
Ever wondered why you keep getting calls about an AA renewal you never signed up for? The pattern suggests a scam using a cloned AA number to harvest personal details and payment information. Always verify the caller by hanging up and dialing the official AA contact number from a trusted source, not the one displayed on your screen. Block the suspicious number on your handset and report it to the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) and Action Fraud. Keep records of texts or voicemails, as they can aid investigations. Remember, legitimate organisations rarely demand immediate payment via phone and will not pressure you if you’re not a member.
