Beware of this dodgy scam text!

Said they were from Lloyds Bank but pretty sure it was a scam.

I recently encountered a situation involving a one-time password from Lloyds for my Aviva insurance. Turned out to be a dodgy scheme! Scammers everywhere, it seems.

I got a couple of messages that appeared to be from Lloyds Bank. They both mentioned a one-time pin code for a transaction of £739.99 at Argos and urged me to ring a specific number if I hadn’t authorised the purchase. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

Like others have mentioned, I got a text supposedly from Santander about a transaction at Argos. It definitely seemed dodgy, especially since they sent me the exact same message two times, each with an identical one-time code. Surely not the smartest trick to pull. I didn’t respond or click on anything, but it felt risky enough that I’d recommend just blocking the number to be safe.

Got a text from a mobile claiming to be Santander, same story as a few others here, saying I’d got a one-off code for a purchase at Argos for £738.99. They then told me to ring this other number. Pretty obvious it was a scam from the start.

Total rip off!

Got a text from Lloyds saying I'd made a £739.99 purchase at Argos with a one-time pin included. The message asked me to call 01779400756 if it wasn't me. It’s clearly a scam - if you call back, they try to get into your online banking. It's just another version of those refund scams. Best to just block and forget about it!

Got a text saying it was from HSBC with a number to call if I didn’t make a purchase. Didn’t buy anything, and I’m not even a customer. Just another scam run by some dodgy people trying their luck.
