This one looks like a fresh twist on that scam where they try to trick you with dodgy foreign currency charges and pretend to be Amazon.

I got this automated call saying my Visa card was charged £170 for a train ticket from London to the Midlands. The message said if that wasn’t right, I should press a button to speak with Visa to fix it. It felt off though, no one ever asked for any details about me or my card, so I’m wondering how they even knew they were speaking to me in the first place. Definitely seemed like a dodgy call.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft, said there was a problem with my PC. Definitely a scam.

Got a robo call saying my bank card was being used without permission. They mentioned something about buying stuff on Amazon and sending money abroad. They told me to hit #1 if I wanted to chat with someone. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.
