Expert Opinion

Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, the call from +448082802784 can appear reassuring yet hide a threat. The majority of reports point to Santander using this number for genuine fraud‑prevention outreach, but scammers frequently mimic the same script, asking for full card details or birth dates. Keep any personal data to a minimum; verify the call by hanging up and dialing the official number on the back of your card or through the bank’s app. Ask for the caller’s name and reference number, and treat the interaction as a security check and verify independently before responding.
