Phone number ☎️ 01773740740 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam caller impersonating bank fraud departments, using automated messages with American or robotic voices. The calls claim suspicious transactions on credit or debit cards, prompting recipients to press numbers to confirm or dispute charges. These calls often target numbers registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) and may involve repeated ring attempts or hang-ups upon answering. They lack specific bank or account details, are frequently silent or disconnected abruptly, and are widely recognised as fraudulent attempts to obtain personal information. Users are advised not to engage, to block the number, and to remain vigilant as these calls utilise spoofing techniques and continue despite existing regulations.

3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from the fraud team at my bank. Total scam!3 yearsGot a call with that typical robot tone saying it was about my bank card. Classic scam, nothing new really.3 yearsThe number popped up on my phone but I didn’t know who it was so I just let it ring out. I never picked up, just had it on recording to keep track of how often these annoying calls happen.3 yearsI reckon the TPS really needs stronger enforcement. Any business ringing a number listed on the TPS should face legal penalties, no matter how they’re calling - whether it’s a direct call or, like most of them, through VOIP services. Maybe we ought to organise a petition to pressure the government into taking proper action.TPS3 yearsLooks like the festive break has come to an end! Got one of those typical Visa Security scams again, saying there were dodgy transactions and to press 1 or 2. I hit 0 instead and got through to a bloke with an Asian accent who claimed he really was from Visa Security. When I told him he should find a proper job, he joked back asking why I didn’t hire him cos he hated this gig 😂! Honestly, the phone companies need to sort out all these scam calls once and for all 😠.Visa SecurityAsia3 yearsClassic bank fraud scam at play here. An automated voice, sounding rather like a woman, informed me that £700 and £2,000 had supposedly been deducted, claimed to be for some foreign website. Naturally, it included the typical line about the bank being worried because such transactions have never occurred from my account in the past. The usual choices were presented: press 1 to approve the payment or 2 for assistance from the Support Team. When I didn’t respond in any way, the message repeated itself. That in itself is rather strange, don’t you think?Support Team3 yearsClassic bank fraud call trying to scare me. Some robotic lady warned me about charges of £700 and £2000 for an overseas... something, maybe a gambling site, but I couldn’t quite catch the word. Oddly, the message repeated itself after I stayed silent, which I’ve never had happen before. It also mentioned being worried because I supposedly never made payments like that before. The usual prompts followed: press 1 to approve the payments or 2 to speak with the support team.Support Team3 yearsToday at around 10:20 am, I got a call on my landline 01530 812521 from someone pretending there was a problem with my bank transaction.
