Rang on a holiday regarding Standard Bank debit, even seeking ID confirmation. Beware of info phishing
Standard Bank scam call alert – what to do?
Summary — +27117840017
Expert Opinion
Beware of callers who claim to be from Standard Bank and demand immediate verification of your account. These fraudsters often use a silent or repetitive “can you hear me?” tactic to keep you on the line, then ask for personal information or bank details under the guise of a debit order issue. Hang up as soon as the request feels unsolicited, especially on holidays when legitimate banks rarely call. Verify any claim by contacting the bank directly using an official number, block the offending number, and report the incident to your provider or consumer protection agency. Staying skeptical protects your finances.
