Nationwide call – is it legit or a scam?

Expert Opinion
Never trust an unexpected call claiming to be Nationwide unless you verify the number yourself. Scammers frequently spoof legitimate bank lines to harvest personal data or push fraudulent transactions. Hang up, locate the official contact number on the back of your card or the bank’s website, and call back to confirm any request. Never share passwords, PINs, or full card details over the phone. If you suspect a scam, report it to your bank’s fraud department and to the national reporting centre. Keep a record of the call time and what was said; this helps investigators track and shut down malicious actors.
