Got the same email but I didnt apply for any loan or card for £2500 at all. Quite confusing really!

Some bloke rang me claiming I got approved for a loan, but I never even put in an application. Then he started asking for my personal info - sounded like some Indian guy on the phone.

Has anyone come across this number? I got an email saying it's from Purple Finance Cards, but I couldn't find them on Companies House, so I'm a bit iffy about whether it's legit or just a scam.

I just received that very same email everyone’s talking about on here, and honestly, it looks like a total scam to me.

I gave them a ring too, was promised the same thing, still waiting after 15 days and no card in sight.

The way it's worded is a dead giveaway that it's just a scam. It starts with “hello hope you're well” but without a question mark, which makes no sense. Who even are they saying hello to? Honestly, I could keep listing stuff. It’s 100% a SCAM. Plus, I searched everywhere and couldn't find any info about this company at all.

Beware of this number, it’s trying to trick you into ringing them so they can ‘activate’ some card they say they’ll send you. Total scam.

I tried ringing and then had to dial a different number, which ended up costing me £35. They said they'd post out a card within 15 days, but honestly, I'm not convinced. Feels a bit dodgy, like maybe it’s a scam.

I got an email telling me I had a prepaid card loaded with £2500, which instantly felt dodgy since I never signed up for anything like that! These scams are so common now. I quickly popped the number into Google and within minutes, loads of sites confirmed it was a scam. Glad I didn’t fall for it.

Did anyone ever ring this number back? I just got an email saying something about £2500 on a loaded card and to call them or something like that. Bit suspicious if you ask me.

Hello, I got a call like this too, do you think it's some kind of scam? Or did someone actually manage to get hold of this card?

Got an email the other day saying I've got a card with £2500 on it, but they want me to ring 01244940143 to confirm my details before they send it out. Seems a bit dodgy to me.

They were calling about unsecured loans, sounded a bit dodgy to me.

Got a call from some alpha card firm claiming I was approved for a £2500 card. They wanted my info and said they’d post it out in a couple of weeks. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.
