My elderly mum, who’s 85, got a couple of calls from some awful people trying to scare her into handing over her bank passwords. They claimed there was going to be a £600 withdrawal unless she gave them the details. Luckily, I manage all her bank stuff, so she couldn’t give them anything. Just a heads up to watch out and keep your family safe from these scammers.

They keep ringing my mother in law who's 80, saying there's been a 600 unauthorized charge on her bank. It's really distressing her.

Got a call from 01278691878, it was dodgy for sure. They rang me four times about some dodgy £600 charge I never agreed to. Kept telling me to press one and all that. Don’t fall for it!

It’s awful how these people target the vulnerable. They keep bothering my aunt, saying money’s been withdrawn and to press 1. Absolute lowlifes, really causing her a lot of stress and worry. Shame on them.

Got a voicemail saying something like "visa alert - press 1 now if you didn’t authorise £600" and it was one of those automated voices. Definitely sounded dodgy to me.

Absolute scam artists, total crooks. Definitely worth reporting to the police.

Got a robo call saying there’s a £600 charge on my visa card that I didn’t authorise. They told me to press 1 to speak with someone. Bit fishy if you ask me.

Just got a dodgy call trying to phish info. Do NOT hit 1, best to just end the call straight away.

This is the third time they’ve rung me today. Honestly, just steer clear of them.

Got a call from 01278691878 saying £600 was withdrawn from my account. I knew straight away it was a scam because I don’t even have that much money in there right now.

I got calls from three separate numbers today, all pretty much the same thing. It was quite annoying having to deal with it multiple times.
