My erderly neighbour got a phone call from his bank yesterday to say that his cards had been cloned and his account has been frozen, they then asked him to verify his acount number and details, he smelt a rat and refused. They then told him to check his card for the phone number on the back of the card and to phone it and verify that this is genuine. This he did and was told they would have a courier come come and collect the cards in 20mins to hand to the police, again he smelt a rat. So he phoned his branch and spoke to the manager who confirmed that this was not true and this is a fraud.......
How did they hack into the phone system to divert the call to them rather than it going through to bank call centre!?
It all sounds rather elaborate and like something out of Enemy of the state!!
Be careful peeps..........
