I picked up on the landline, and I was greeted by a recorded voice claiming to be addressing fraudulent activity linked to my Visa card that supposedly happened earlier today. They prompted me to press 1 to cancel the transactions or 2 to chat with an advisor. In a moment of unguardedness, I foolishly pressed 1 to try and stop whatever was going on. Shortly after, a voice came on from what sounded like a bustling call centre. The chap on the other end mumbled something about being from Visa's fraud division and reiterated the message about these so-called illegal transactions. When I asked him for my house number and postcode to verify his legitimacy, he faltered and couldn't provide any details. That was my cue; I promptly let him know that I would be contacting my bank and hung up. I rang both banks I deal with, and they were completely unaware of any such happenings. Clearly, it was a scam!Visa2 yearsMagrathea Telecom seems to be behind this one too, they’re using a North Tyneside number 01916401798 to make it look local.North TynesideMagrathea Telecom2 yearsGot a call from this number about some diesel refund or something.
