Expert Opinion

Nearly losing £4k after a call from this number shows how convincing the scammers can be. Callers clone the official Starling Bank fraud line, use familiar phrasing, and push for login details or payment approvals. The safest move is to hang up immediately, never share passwords, PINs, or verification codes. Always verify the request through the official banking app or by calling the known customer service number. Block the caller on your phone and report the incident to the bank’s fraud department and to the national scam reporting service. Stay alert for numbers that differ by just one digit, and warn friends and family about the trick.
