That was quite alarming! They nearly had me in their web of deceit. Claimed they’d spotted a dodgy transaction on my debit card for £350 linked to Amazon. Ridiculous, really!

This number phoned me with an automated voice saying £350 had been withdrawn and used on Amazon from my bank. I didn’t buy it and ended the call straight away. When I looked it up on Who’s Called Me, I was shocked to see it listed as Sky. Just a heads up to anyone else getting calls from this number!

I keep seeing this old scam pop up on a show about fraud on BBC1. There’s also a Channel 5 programme about scams right now, airing Monday and Wednesday nights, plus you can catch it on iPlayer and My5. It’s pretty eye-opening and quite worrying. These gangsters behind it have really clever and well-organised setups!
