Phone number ☎️ 03450307251 👆 is reported as a phone number frequently used by scammers impersonating HSBC, First Direct, M&S bank, and other financial institutions. Callers often claim to be from fraud prevention teams, requesting personal information such as identification, date of birth, postcode, or bank details.

I got a call from someone claiming to be with HSBC, but it was obvious they were trying to scam me. They wanted me to give my ID details, which immediately felt very dodgy. I told them straight up that they were a fraud and should be really embarrassed for trying to trick people like that. They ought to find a proper job instead of causing trouble for others.

Yeah, it’s really HSBC calling. They were doing their usual security thing to make sure I wasn’t being hit by any fraud. They just asked a few questions about a payment I made to see if it was genuine or if someone was trying to scam me. The number’s definitely genuine! If you think you’ve been scammed, give them a ring back!

Dodgy call - they knew my name and pretended to be from First Direct (I’d rung them earlier about a problem and thought it might be linked). The woman said her name was Shoshana, but her voice was a bit unclear, and I got suspicious since I didn’t know the number. She suggested I ring FD Customer Services, which I did, and they told me it wasn’t them who called.

Got a call from a woman claiming to be from First Direct, saying she needed to verify a transaction I supposedly made today. She knew my full name, then asked for my birth date and postcode - I didn’t give it and just hung up. When I phoned First Direct myself, they said they hadn’t contacted me at all. I had actually opened a new account with a different bank that morning, so I could’ve easily fallen for it if I wasn’t careful. The caller had an Indian accent and it didn’t sound like she was calling from the UK.

Received a call purporting to be from my bank, requesting my postcode and date of birth. It struck me as odd that they couldn’t provide any identifying details to prove their authenticity. I ended the call rather promptly and rang my bank directly to verify, only to find out that they had no record of such a call. It’s safe to say I reckon it’s a scam.

Some idiot rang up claiming to be from HSBC, trying to get more info from my son after he got scammed by some horrible person. HSBC have sort of sorted it but their communication is so bad we're still left hanging. This tosser asked about payments on the account, when my son said there’s none, he just hung up. Don’t pick up, it’s definitely a scam.

It was the HSBC fraud team ringing to confirm some info I gave them earlier that day - I realised this since I spoke to the same agent from HSBC again. But like others have said, it's probably safer to just end the call and ring the bank yourself, just in case the number's been faked by scammers.

This is a real HSBC fraud hotline. Don’t just hang up or block it straight away. However, scammers often fake bank numbers, so it’s tricky to know who’s ringing. If your bank calls, end the call and wait till the line is clear. Then ring the number on the back of your card. Don’t leave it too long as there might be a serious issue. But always be cautious, as scammers might pretend to be HSBC so never share any info until you’ve called them back yourself.

EXTREMELY RISKY!!! This number has given me a lot of trouble. A lady with a foreign accent called me, claiming to be from HSBC and said she needed some details before continuing. I ended up hanging up and blocked the number. The next day, HSBC had frozen my account because she’d got access to my current account and attempted to take all my money. This number really should be looked into and taken off air straight away. My account is still frozen and I’m really stressed as my direct debits aren’t going through. It’s a total nightmare.

Got a call from someone claiming to be HSBC Fraud Prevention. I've got the real HSBC Fraud Prevention saved in my contacts, but this time it just showed up as a number. I told the caller straight away they were a scam and hung up. Right after, I got a text saying to ring Fraud Prevention on 0345 6031832 with a reference code CD. I logged into my online banking and phoned the usual, proper HSBC number. Everything looks alright with my accounts. I'm still chatting with HSBC now and they can see a call was made, but the advisor seemed really annoyed about the whole thing.
