I got a similar email myself, and I can assure you I haven't sought out any card or loan for that amount of £2500.

I received a call from an Indian gentleman claiming I had been approved for a loan, though I’ve never sought one. He then proceeded to ask for my personal information. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

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've just received the identical email that numerous others are mentioning here, and it really feels like a con.

I gave them a call too and was informed of the same thing. It's been a whole fortnight and still haven't received my card!

Take a gander at the phrasing, and it’s evident we’re dealing with a dodgy operation here. Starting off with, 'Hello, hope you're well' just doesn't sit right, does it? And honestly, who’s this 'hello' aimed at? The red flags are waving all over! It’s nothing short of a scam-a right con job, if you ask me. Plus, you won’t find a single clue about this so-called company anywhere. Total shambles!

Beware of this dodgy number! They’ll try to get you to ring them up to supposedly 'activate' some card that they claim will be sent your way. It’s a complete scam!

I made a phone call and ended up having to ring a different number, which cost me a whopping £35. They informed me that a card would arrive in about 15 days. I'm not entirely convinced, though; it feels a bit dodgy and I suspect it might be a scam.

Indeed! I received a rather dodgy email claiming I’d been granted a pre-paid card worth £2500. That set off alarm bells right away since I’ve never even considered applying for something like that! I’m no fool when it comes to scams, so I promptly popped the number into Google. Lo and behold, within moments, I stumbled upon numerous sites confirming my gut feelings about this whole farce. It’s alarming how crafty these fraudsters can be!

Has anyone received a call back from this number? I just got an email claiming there's a £2500 prepaid card waiting for me, and they want me to give them a ring or something. Sounds a bit dodgy, doesn’t it?

Hello there! I’ve experienced a similar situation-could it be a scam? Or is it possible someone got hold of that card?

I've had that exact message come through as well.

I received an email mentioning a pre-loaded card worth £2500, and they're asking me to ring 01244940143 for verification before it can be sent out. Sounds a bit dodgy, if you ask me!

I've received a message from a so-called alpha credit card provider, claiming I have been approved for a card with a limit of £2,500. They’re asking for my information, assuring me that it will arrive within a fortnight. Sounds a bit dodgy, doesn’t it?
