03453000268 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 03453000268 👆 is reported as a number frequently used in sophisticated scam attempts posing as Bank of Scotland or Lloyds Bank, especially targeting business accounts. Callers often claim urgent issues like suspicious transactions or mandate requests, with some leaving convincing but dubious voicemails or letters. While the number itself is genuine for Bank of Scotland business, scammers exploit it through spoofing or impersonation to extract personal and financial details. Many callers hang up abruptly or use poor English, and recipients who verified with their actual banks often found no legitimate contact. Recipients are advised not to provide any information, to verify independently via official bank channels, and to report suspicious activity promptly to avoid fraud. Exercise vigilance, especially if you do not bank with these institutions.

Got a voicemail from someone called “Amari” claiming to be from Bank of Scotland about my business credit card. Total rubbish! This is the second time I've got one of these messages. I already told the Bank of Scotland’s fraud team. Hope that scumbag gets what’s coming to him!

I've come across this dodgy caller before-last time they claimed to be affiliated with my bank. This time, though, they were banging on about being from British Gas. Such a persistent and overbearing individual! Thankfully, I didn’t divulge any information. Just a heads up for anyone else who might get a call from this number-stay alert!

Lloyds/Bank of Scotland Business here. These days it’s easy to fake phone numbers, so keep your info to yourself. Tell them you’ll ring back instead.

Really believable and they somehow got into my bank before I even answered the call, then started asking for my memorable info. Bank of Scotland never rings you up direct, they always send a text first and then you have to ring them back.

Pretending to be from Bank of Scotland. The number shown is real but it's not the actual one they’re calling from (you only see the BoS number on caller ID). They try to get your personal info and say your account’s been compromised with large sums taken out.

GOT A LETTER ON 30TH OCT 2021 FROM BANK OF SCOTLAND DATED 22ND OCT 2021, SAYING SOMEONE TRIED TO ACCESS OUR ACCOUNT BUT DIDN'T GIVE THE RIGHT SECURITY DETAILS. THE LETTER IS PRINTED ON REALLY THIN PAPER AND HAS ALL THE OFFICIAL BANK LOGOS AND WORDING ABOUT FRAUD PROTECTION. THE THING IS, WE DONT HAVE AN ACCOUNT WITH BANK OF SCOTLAND. SO JUST BE WARNED AND DONT RESPOND TO IT.

They rang my husband's phone and he naively called back. The person claimed to be from RBS, but he doesn’t even have an account there. He’s not the best with these things, and I’ve told him before not to return calls from strange numbers. Fingers crossed he understood and hung up quickly!

Got a call from someone called 'Lisa' saying she was from 'Business Bank' (!) and wanted me to ring back on a 00268 number. She never actually mentioned the bank's name properly, so I decided to look up the number on Google. Glad I did, coz I’m dealing with a bank mandate issue right now and this could’ve been a scam. At least the number was nothing like the one I was expecting.

Got a call from someone called Alex claiming to be from "Business banking," asking for my wife but they rang my number. When I dialled back, it was one of those proper sounding Lloyd's bank robotic messages. Thing is, neither me nor my wife have any accounts with Lloyd's, especially not business ones. Seems pretty dodgy to me.

SCAM alert. They send letters and make calls claiming they’re from different banks. It’s a con to steal from you. Hand the letter straight to the police. Avoid answering their calls, they keep pestering you nonstop.

Received a letter telling me to call this number regarding my business account with BOS. When I called, the person on the line said they hadn’t heard anything about the letter. The letter began with "Dear Sirs" and gave my company job title wrong. The paper was quite thin and the print was a bit crooked. Apart from that, it looked pretty genuine.

Clearly a scam caller. They said they were from the bank asking about a suspicious Visa charge. It felt dodgy straight away, so I said I wasn’t convinced and asked which bank it was realy. They just hung up. The number looked like it was from Bank of Scotland but I’m sure it’s fake. I’ve told the bank about it now.
