Uventede automatiserede opkald der beder om en kode, som brugere beskriver, rejser ofte bekymringer om sikkerhed. Mange oplever det som en legitim verifikation fra Halifax eller Bank of Scotland ved opsætning af online banking eller app, men andre kalder det direkte svindel, især hvis de ikke har konto der. Scam-aktiviteter kan efterligne bankens systemer for at stjæle personlige oplysninger som koder eller PIN. Vigtigt råd: Svar aldrig på uventede anmodninger om følsomme data, og ring altid til banken via deres officielle nummer for at verificere. Blokér nummeret hvis det bliver ved med at ringe, og rapporter mistænkelige opkald til politiet eller forbrugerstyrelsen for at beskytte dine data. Hold øje med din konto for usædvanlig aktivitet, og brug kun sikre kanaler til bankaffærer.
