This access is exploited to install malicious software aimed at stealing banking information. Victims have reportedly lost significant amounts of money, sometimes hundreds of pounds, through these fraudulent tactics. The callers may sound convincing but provide suspicious contact information, such as a generic email address. It is advised not to share any personal information or grant remote access and to remain on the call as long as possible to waste the scammers' time.

Quite strange!4 yearsI received a notification indicating that there was an attempt to buy gift cards through an Amazon account that, quite frankly, I don’t even possess. It’s apparent that these individuals were attempting to pilfer my banking information.Amazon4 yearsMy grandad got ripped off by one of those bogus Amazon calls, paying somewhere between £300 and £500 for some supposed lifetime computer protection from Norton. Really hope no one else falls for this dodgy scam!AmazonNorton4 yearsI got tricked by this number into handing over £450 for some so-called Lifetime coverage to protect my PC from online scams (talk about irony). The person on the phone sounded really convincing. Their story was that someone out of county was stealing my identity and making purchases on Amazon. Before I knew it, they had taken over my computer, which I've since had a professional look at. I've also gone ahead and changed all my bank passwords now. My bank is trying to get the money back for me...Amazon4 yearsThey called claiming to be from Amazon, saying someone was attempting to load money onto a gift card and tried to get more bank info from me.AmazonSubmit Your Own Report (01279 297059)
