A fraudster posing as a bank attempted to extract my account details, cheers!
Distress Scam Alert!
Summary — +447892917735
Expert Opinion
Beware of unsolicited messages or calls mimicking known contacts, as they often lead to scam attempts. In this case, the caller exploits trust by posing as a relative in distress, requesting financial help under false pretences like blocked numbers or urgent bills. Such tactics aim to extract personal details or money quickly. Always verify the identity through a separate, trusted channel—never respond directly to suspicious queries. Hang up immediately if something feels off, and report to Action Fraud. Block the number and enable two-factor authentication on accounts to safeguard against similar frauds.

Scam
Was chatting with a relative when a message popped up saying she’d changed her mobile – I replied thinking it was her. Then she mentioned being stressed, which she’s never said in 16 years, and asked for help with big bills after her number was blocked for 48 hours. Clearly a scam, mate.
