Reports on phone number 02032895543
10 yearsToday, my elderly sister, who’s 84, received a phone call and her husband took a message from the caller. When she returned the call, a person named Martin Taylor claimed to be from Nationwide, stating they had blocked a fraudulent attempt on her account the previous night. Thankfully, my sister's instincts kicked in, and she ended the conversation prematurely. Still feeling uneasy, she decided to contact Nationwide directly, but when they requested her account number, she felt too anxious to provide it. Now, she's quite unsettled but plans to visit her local branch first thing tomorrow.Martin TaylorNationwide10 yearsRecently, my 86-year-old mother received a rather alarming phone call from individuals claiming to represent the fraud squad. They insisted that someone had attempted to withdraw money from her bank account - despite the fact that we live all the way up in Scotland, not London. To make matters worse, they rang again, now masquerading as the Metropolitan Police. We've taken the precaution of reporting this to her bank, and they're keeping a vigilant eye on her account. It’s truly unsettling for an elderly lady to go through such a distressing experience.ScotlandLondonMetropolitan Police10 yearsMy elderly mother received a call from this number, supposedly from a chap named Michael Ryan. He claimed he was with the Met police and urged her to contact a Martin Taylor on the same line due to some alleged fraud on her account. When I asked him where he was calling from, he seemed rather irritated but finally mentioned Worthing high street. I did a quick check and realised that there's no police station there. Naturally, we got in touch with the bank, who confirmed there was no fraud at all and assured us that no police officer would initiate contact in that manner - it would always be the bank. This left my mum quite distressed, I must say. It's quite troubling how these scammers operate.Michael RyanMetMartin TaylorWorthing10 yearsI received a call from a chap identifying himself as Martin Taylor, claiming to be with the Lloyds Fraud Office. He provided a London address along with the phone number listed above. He alleged that there was someone at the bank branch leaking customer information and instructed me to go in and withdraw £3000, adding that I should keep this under wraps. He mentioned he would ring back around lunchtime. In response, we reached out to Lloyds’ Fraud Office directly and returned to the bank, where we had a word with the manager. We ended up depositing £3000 instead and subsequently provided a statement to the police. This same fellow did indeed call back, maintaining that his call was legitimate. However, the bank clearly stated that they would NEVER reach out to customers and advise them to withdraw cash. I have informed the authorities about the incident.Martin TaylorLloyds Fraud OfficeLondonLloyds ’ Fraud OfficeNEVER10 yearsBeware! This is a dodgy scheme, so steer clear of sending them any funds. No legitimate bank would ever ring you up and request that you take money out of your own account to transfer it to someone else. That’s just not the protocol they follow for investigating fraud cases.10 yearsI received a phone call from someone claiming to be an officer at HSBC. They instructed me to ring back this number in order to address some fraudulent activity. However, it struck me as odd since I thought HSBC's numbers wouldn't begin with 020...HSBCSubmit Your Own Report (020 3289 5543)
