Fraudulent Phone Call Alert

It has come to our attention that members of the public have received fraudulent calls from individuals who pretended to be Courts Service staff.

The caller:

  • Claimed to be a member of the Courts Service staff.
  • Claimed to be following up on Fines to be paid.
  • Targeted someone who had recently been to Court
  • Asked for PPS, bank or credit card details.

The Courts Service will never ring anybody asking for PPS, banking or credit card details

If you receive such a call, please:

  • Do not engage with the caller
  • Do not share any part of your PPS Number, credit card details, bank card details, bank account details, or any other personal information with them.
