2 yearsI received a call from an automated system claiming to be from Bank Security, asking me to verify a payment of £300 to Amazon. It felt quite suspicious!Bank SecurityAmazon2 yearsGot a call from 01942 817929 saying they’d taken £600 from me - completely harassing and really frightening for an elderly person like me.2 yearsI got a call from an automated voice claiming to be my bank's security team. They wanted me to verify if I had made a payment of £300 to Amazon. They said press 1 if it was me, or press 2 to speak with their support staff if I hadn’t authorised it. It all sounded quite legit (these scammers are really improving). Luckily, I knew it was dodgy since they never gave their bank’s actual name, and the phone number didn’t match my bank at all. I just ended the call straight away.AmazonSubmit Your Own Report (01942 817929)
