03456021997 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 03456021997 👆 is reported as a persistent and sophisticated scam using number spoofing to impersonate Lloyds Bank and other UK banks. Callers often present as fraud prevention officers, referencing real or fabricated fraudulent transactions to gain trust. They attempt to extract sensitive details, including card numbers, passwords, and verification codes, sometimes pressuring victims into transferring funds or sharing one-time passcodes. Many victims, including vulnerable elderly individuals, have suffered financial loss and distress. Despite the number appearing genuine on caller ID, Lloyds Bank confirms these are fraudulent calls. It is strongly advised not to answer unsolicited calls from this number, never share personal or banking details, and independently verify any suspicious contact by calling your bank directly on official numbers. Reporting such scams to police fraud authorities is essential to help combat these threats.
Reports on phone number 03456021997
10 monthsGot a text saying something about Lloyds trying to contact me but they couldn’t get through. Strange as I didn’t expect any call from them.Lloyds2 yearsGot a call about some bank stuff, sounded like a scam trying to trick me. Total phone fraud, be careful!2 yearsMy nan has been getting loads of calls from some bloke claiming to work for fraud protection. He ended up tricking her into quite a few scams linked to Lloyds and other banks she uses. It’s really heartbreaking to see her go through that 😢Lloyds Bank2 yearsThey keep ringing my phone non stop!2 years0345 6021 997 Pretending to be Lloyds bank. This is definitely a con. They managed to swindle my grandson out of over £2,000, using a bunch of different fake names like HMRC and DWP among others. Lloyds themselves have said this number isn’t theirs. When you call back, the caller ID shows Lloyds, which makes it seem very legit.Lloyds bankHMRCDWPLloyds2 yearsGot a call about a Lloyds bank account, sounded fishy, probably a scam.Lloyds Bank3 yearsWatch out! Some dodgy person rang me pretending they wanted to "refund money to my account" and tried to trick me into giving bank details. Total scam!3 yearsdefinitely a scam, watch out!4 yearsThey claimed that someone who looks like me tried to open an account with a fake ID and then just hung up on me.4 yearsDon’t pick up if you see this number - I got ripped off for thousands! They freak you out by mentioning loads of private stuff like your full name, where you went to uni, and other personal bits. Really dodgy.4 yearsSome bloke rang me saying someone with my name and uni was trying to set up a student account at Lloyds. It sounded dodgy, so I just hung up.Lloyds4 years0345 602 1997 is genuinely a Lloyds Bank number, but sadly scammers are copying the number so it shows up on your phone, tricking you into thinking it’s them. The smartest move is just not picking up and instead ring your bank directly to check if they actually tried to contact you.Lloyds Bank4 yearsDont trust the number 0345 602 1997, some guy called ben claimed he was from a bank and sounded really legit. Honestly, he talked like he knew his stuff, so he might even be an ex-worker or someone who’s been nosy in banking. Seriously, if you’re not waiting for a call from your bank, don’t pick up! And always ring your bank back on their official number to check. Scammers are getting cleverer every day as they learn from their mistakes.Ben4 yearsSome bloke claimed he was calling from Virgin Money about a purchase at Argos. The call showed up as from a private number. I told him I wouldn’t share any details with a private caller. Then he phoned again from a different number. I didn’t pick up even though it said Lloyds Bank on caller ID. Turns out now it was a dodgy number.Virgin MoneyArgosLloyds Bank4 yearsI got a text from Lloyds Bank saying I had limited time to sort a payment issue and to ring 0345 602 1997 for details. I phoned as I actually had a payment dispute, and at first it felt legit since they went through all the security questions. But then a guy named Mohammad told me to ring a different number, 03456021997. I didn’t call that number but after checking both, I saw it was a scam! Really well done one too! Watch out everyone!LloysBankMohammad4 yearsScam alert!!!!!! They faked the number, even tho it shows the real one its not them at all! Said they were from Lloyds bank, but definitely a fraud! DONT TRUST THIS!Lloyds Bank4 yearsGot a call saying it was from my bank but it wasnt, mentioned a card number that wasnt mine and a charge of £80.99. Best not to pick up.4 yearsThis looks like a total con to me.4 yearsAt first they acted all sure of themselves when I explained what was wrong, but then they just cut me off not once, but twice. After that, I dialled 03456072241441312783685 which bizarrely showed up in my call history. To my surprise, it connected me to Lloyds Bank and someone picked up before hanging up abruptly. It all feels pretty dodgy to me, like they're just trying to steal your info. They told me to hang up if they called again and to ring back the 3000000 number straight away. That number’s massive, I still find the whole thing unbelievable.Lloyd ' s4 yearsMy partner got a call on his mobile from a voice that seemed like a call centre in India. They claimed to be from Lloyds Bank, mentioning a card with numbers ending in 4297, which is totally wrong as neither of us have cards with those digits. He asked what the call was regarding but didn’t confirm the numbers, and they just ended the call. Pretty clear this is a dodgy scam.IndiaLloyds Bank4 yearsDefinitely a fraud call!4 yearsFraudsters faking their numbers, looking to steal your bank details.4 yearsReally believable and slick BANK SCAM, they use a “Spoofed Number” so it seems like your bank is ringing you, but it’s someone else entirely.4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Halifax with a southern accent, said my card was used at Harrods, but when I asked them to prove who they were, they just ended the call - total scam!HalifaxHarrods4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from Halifax, claiming there was a dodgy payment on my account. It’s definitely not the bank, just a scammer trying to trick you. Don’t answer or respond, just block the number straight away.Halifax4 yearsGot a call on my mobile but ignored it cause I didn’t know the number. Figured it was a scam and turns out it was. Big thanks to all who report these dodgy calls.4 yearsThat’s TSB for sure, I set up my Margate appointment with them, so it’s definitely not a fake number.TSBMargate4 yearsCalled me saying they were from my bank, mentioned my full name and where I study. They said there had been some identity theft and that the police were connected to the case. Felt legit because they advised me not to share any personal info. Definitely a scam though.4 yearsSaid they were from Lloyds bank.Lloyds Bank4 yearsHe asked if he was speaking to [my name], and I said yes. He claimed to be calling from Barclays bank and mentioned calls are recorded for training - quite believable at first. Then he said someone came into a nearby branch trying to open a student account, but when they checked the ID, it was fake and the person ran off. He wanted to verify he was legit by asking if I had Google on my phone. I told him I’d just handle it in person at the branch, and he immediately hung up, which just showed he was a total fraud.Barclays bankGoogle4 yearsThey said they were from Lloyds Bank but never actually gave their name. When we asked who they were, they sounded convincing. So, we rang Lloyds ourselves to check and they had no idea about any call like that. The call was about some supposed ‘fraud’ and an investigation starting. Honestly, don’t pick up these calls and make sure to report anything fishy.Lloyd ’ s4 yearsThis is definitely a banking scam. The person said they were from Barclays. Just ignore and hang up if they ring you.Barclays Bank4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Lloyds Bank, really irritating, kept pushing about a £500 payment. The caller said his name was S Thomas Reed.Lloyds BankS. Thomas Reed4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Lloyds bank, but they just ended the call as soon as I asked some questions.Lloyds Bank4 yearsI got a call from this number yesterday, some bloke saying his name was Nigel Foster and telling me my card had been used fraudulently. I told him I was tied up and just hung up. Then, around ten minutes later, he phoned me back and asked if there was a better time to talk. I ended the call again. He seemed pretty convincing but honestly, I’m sure it was a scam.Nigel Foster5 yearsSomebody pretending to be from a bank phoned me trying to find out how much money I had in my account.5 yearsGot a call claiming to be Lloyds bank - they had the right numbers but sounded off. Best not to answer back.Lloyds Bank5 yearsBank scammer pretended to be from Lloyds fraud dept, tricked my wife into handing over £600. She even hung up and dialled the number back, only to hear an official Lloyds message. Turns out the caller was using stolen card info to buy stuff online and wanted the one-time passcode sent to the cardholder’s phone. Since the number seemed legit as Lloyds, she ended up trusting him and gave the code.Lloyds5 yearsGot a call from some con artist on this number yesterday, and they somehow got into my online bank and nicked a grand from my account.5 yearsThis number rang me three times in just one hour today, but everytime I tried to pick up there was no one there. Quite strange.5 yearsTold me it was Lloyds bank fraud team, said there's unauthorised withdrawals on my account. Total scam!Lloyds Bank5 yearsThis number looks exactly like it’s from Lloyds bank but it’s a dodgy spoof. They called sayin they were from Lloyds and wanted my details cos of some transaction to do with Vodafone. I told them I’d just pop into the bank instead.

The bloke said someone was trying to take £300 from my Lloyds account and that he needed to change my password. Turns out he was the one wanting to get into my account, and that's why he asked for the 4-digit authorisation code. He said he’d hang up and I’d get another call where I’d have to enter the code he gave me.LloydsLloyds Bank6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Lloyds fraud dept. Totally ignore them.Lloyds Bank6 yearsSomeone rang my mum trying to get her to change her electricity provider. She can't quite recall if they mentioned a company or if she shared any info with them. So frustrating! 😡😡6 yearsTotally a scam, watch out!6 yearsI got a call from this number and it was definitely Lloyds bank, seems like it's their legit contact number.Lloyds6 yearsIts important to report all scams to the police, even if you didnt lose any cash. Just search 'action fraud' online, go to the 'police.uk' website, click on the 'reporting' button, then choose the phishing option from the list. Scroll down past the scam email details to submit your report. No need to sign up and it doesnt take long at all. Reporting every scam effort helps the police keep track. After you've done it, share your experience here so others can be warned. Stay safe everyone!6 yearsHad a look at my latest bill and noticed a one-off charge of £4.08 plus VAT linked to this number. I’m guessing we must have called it back since it’s an 0345 number.6 yearsGot a call from this number, some bloke claiming to be from Lloyds Bank, definitely a con, watch out!Lloyds Bank6 yearsA woman rang claiming she was from my bank’s fraud department, saying there was suspicious activity on my account. She then said the account would be shut down because of too much fraudulent stuff going on and that a new one would be opened. She offered to move the money to the new account and asked if I wanted to do it myself or have the bank do it for me. I told her to handle it but she couldn’t, so I told her I’d sort it out later and that I’d be reporting her for attempting to nick my money.6 yearsTried moving all cash to a new account because of some dodgy activity. Total SCAM warning.6 yearsWe just got scammed out of a huge amount of our savings, the guy said he was from Lloyds fraud team trying to help catch scammers. But it was all fake, he was the scammer himself! Watch out for this number, they’ll try and steal everything you’ve got!!!Lloyds6 yearsIt's awful how these scam calls keep targeting poor old folks. Absolute rubbish behaviour.6 yearsGot a call from scammers who somehow got hold of some of my details and were trying to get more info. They were calling from a number linked to Lloyds but were hiding the real caller ID. The person claimed there were purchases made at Argos in Aberdeen using my card (same kind of tale I heard from others online). They kept mentioning going to 'Level 4' Security and said I could speak to their manager if I insisted. I ended the call two times.LloydsArgosAberdeen6 yearsJust got a call from 0345 602 1997 claiming to be from John Lewis. The man was really polite, even called me ma’am which was a bit odd! He mentioned three large purchases and asked for my card details. When I asked him some questions, he couldn’t reply properly. I said I’d ring back and he started saying they’d have to block my account. I called back from another phone and it turned out to be Lloyds Bank! Why do people have to go to such lengths!John LewisLloyds Bank6 yearsI got a call from this number but the signal was terrible which made me suspicious straight away. They said my card had been used in Manchester and asked me to log into my online banking on my phone while speaking to them. I decided to check on another device just to be safe and saw no transactions from Manchester. They even asked how much money I had in my account, probably to see if I was a good mark!Manchester6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be 'Lloyds Bank' saying someone attempted to use £700 from my account up in Aberdeen. When I rang Lloyds directly, it turned out the original number wasn’t theirs at all.Lloyds BankAberdeen6 yearsReceived a letter from Lloyds about CRS, felt a bit iffy so checked their official website and found this number listed there. When I called the switchboard, they asked for my account number, DOB, and the number on the back of my card. I then phoned a verified Lloyds number, and they told me this one’s a scam! Ended up cancelling my card. Definitely not safe, yet it’s still showing on their official site.Lloyds6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Lloyds bank, said there was unauthorised money taken from my account.

Then the bank went and froze her account ‘cause someone was tryna hack in!6 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Lloyds, said there was suspicious activity on my account and wanted my details. I questioned them and they just ended the call.Lloyds7 yearsLooks like Lloyds have now got control of this number, at least for queries related to Flybe issues. I checked by calling them and confirming a few details from my card, so it seems legit now. Bit odd they've gone with a number that’s had such a bad rep before.LloydsFlybe7 yearsGot a message saying it was from Lloyds Bank, but not sure if it’s legit.Lloyds Bank7 yearsI reckon I dialled this number sometime ago and ended up getting charged £5.00, but can't remember exactly when or what for.7 yearsThey said they were from Lloyds bank, but it wasn’t true.
