03457203041 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number โ๏ธ 03457203041 ๐ is reported as a persistent and dangerous scam number impersonating various UK banks, especially Halifax. Callers claim to be from fraud or security teams, citing suspicious transactions to extract sensitive banking details or prompt victims to transfer funds into bogus accounts. They often display convincing knowledge, including personal information and official-sounding statements, but their contact numbers differ slightly from genuine bank lines. Many victims narrowly avoid losses by verifying independently with their banks, though some have suffered significant financial harm. The callers employ pressure tactics and occasionally become aggressive when challenged. No legitimate bank fraud team will request full card details or ask for money transfers over the phone. Recipients are strongly advised to ignore or block this number and report suspicious calls to the authorities promptly.

Looked up the number while they kept talking. Gave them a piece of my mind and hung up!Halifax3 yearsSounds like a dodgy call from someone pretending to be Halifax. They already had my name, where I live, and my number, which was creepy. They said there was some suspicious activity on my account. I told them I thought it was a scam and I was going to ring my bank’s fraud department myself, then I ended the call. When I contacted my bank, they told me there was no issue with my account and the number that called me wasn’t actually linked to the bank. Stay alert, mates.Halifax3 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today. Didn’t know who it was so I just ignored it. After reading the reviews, I’m pleased I didn’t pick up. They didn’t leave any voicemail either.3 yearsCalled by someone pretending to be from Halifax, total scam.Halifax3 yearsTotally a bogus Halifax number.Halifax3 yearsI wouldn’t even waste my time picking up calls from this number; it’s definitely been flagged as a scam!3 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be the Halifax Fraud Dept but it’s a total scam, definitely not them.Halifax Fraud Team3 yearsThey were acting like they were from Halifax.Halifax3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Halifax saying there was odd activity on my account and they needed to lock it down. They sounded really believable and even told me my current balance! I had fallen for a phishing email pretending to be from Royal Mail earlier, which was super convincing too! I nearly went ahead, setting up a new sort code and account, which would’ve cost me a lot. Luckily, when I looked up the number on here, I found out it was a scam.HalifaxRoyal Mail4 yearsI chose not to pick up the call from this number, as I took the wise step of researching it first and perusing the feedback. Much appreciated for the heads-up!4 yearsBuzz off!4 yearsIt appears to be one of those dodgy calls masquerading as a courtesy check, yet I doubt any bank would ring up just to be polite.4 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Halifax fraud team, talked for a bit about some weird Screwfix transaction but then suddenly the call just dropped ๐ค๐ฉHalifaxScrewfix4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Halifax fraud dept, had a nice little talk about an alleged Screwfix transaction but out of nowhere the call just dropped ๐คจ๐ญHalifaxScrewfix4 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Halifax bank about weird activity on my card in Aberdeen.

I told them I'd end the call and ring Nationwide myself, but they got really annoyed, so I just ended the call. WATCH OUT!4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be the Halifax Fraud Department saying there’d been some dodgy activity on my account. When I asked them to prove who they were, they told me to look at the back of my card. The number they gave was almost the same as Halifax’s, just one digit off. They insisted it was the fraud team’s number. Definitely felt like a scam to me.Halifax Fraud TeamHalifax4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming there was suspicious activity on my bank account. When I asked them to verify by giving me a security code, they quickly hung up. Bit strange if you ask me.4 yearsGot a call from a dodgy number pretending to be from the bank. Don’t answer or hand over any info! If you already did, ring your bank straight away and let them know. Also, seriously consider changing your phone number and make sure to update your email passwords too. Better safe than sorry!4 yearsGot a bloke on the phone claiming he was from some fraud team in Halifax. I was right beside my bank at the time, so I told him I'd deal with any money problems there myself. Call ended with him swearing at me. What a pair of muppets! #GetLostFraud DepartmentHalifax4 yearsGot a dodgy text outta nowhere, total scam attempt. Watch out, mates!4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Halifax, said my online banking had been compromised. Total scam, don’t fall for it!HalifaxFelt4 yearsDidn’t get any voicemail or anything, but after reading the reviews suggesting it might be a dodgy bank scam, I just went ahead and blocked the number.4 yearsGot three dodgy texts in the past hour, definitely a scam tryin’ to catch me out.4 yearsI've just had a run-in with what seems to be a dodgy call masquerading as Halifax. They were all too keen to ask whether I'd transferred any cash to someone named Mohammed Hussain. To add to the shenanigans, I received a text from 60298 saying, 'Your debit card has been paused to safeguard against fraudulent activity. We'll reach out soon, no action required on your part'. Just a word of caution-don't divulge any personal information to these scammers!HalifaxMohammed Hussain4 yearsGot a call from 0345 720 3041 claiming they could sort me a refund for an overpaid bill to EON energy. Turned out they were just after my bank info. Definitely steer clear of them!EON4 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, and they claimed to be from Halifax.Halifax4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Nationwide, saying there was a strange £1 payment to the NHS on my card. The guy was very polite and seemed to know a bit about me, but I didn’t share any info. Then they just hung up. I’ve blocked the number now. Pretty sure it was a phishing scam.NationwideNHS4 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be Santander, saying there was unusual activity on my account from somewhere else in the UK. They asked for details like the second half of my address, my account type, overdraft info, and the last couple of transactions. It all sounded pretty legit until they started talking about me needing a brand new account and asked if I wanted a ‘designated’ one. Plus, I could hear an iPhone notification going off in the background, which felt totally unprofessional. Something about the whole thing felt dodgy and off.SantanderUK4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Halifax. Next thing, they somehow got into my husband’s phone and started messaging our contacts on WhatsApp. They even attempted to buy bitcoin using his details! Seriously, watch out for these scammers!HalifaxWhatsApp4 yearsThey claimed to be from Halifax, but something felt off about the call.Halifax4 yearsMy Samsung kept warning me about possible scam calls, so I just ignored it and didn’t pick up.Samsung4 yearsGot a call asking for my bank info, really dodgy and feels unsafe.4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the Co-op fraud department, super annoying!

Pretty sure it was a bank scam though. I just ended the call straight away.The Halifax Fraud Team5 yearsSo this Laura person from Halifax claimed an Argos payment of £276 was made with my card, which isn’t even done near me. She gave a dodgy DOB too, and when I told her my bank balance was barely in the single digits, she just ended the call on me. Quite suspicious!LauraHalifax5 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from Halifax but when I called Halifax myself they said it was definitely a scam.Halifax5 yearsGot a call from 03457203041 about some dodgy stuff going on with my account. They were pretty insistent and wouldn’t take no for an answer!5 yearsAbsolutely a con artist. They managed to get into my bank account and moved £2500 from my savings to my current account.

Definitely steer clear of them.Halifax5 yearsI received a telephone call from this number, which was just one digit off from the Halifax contact number listed on the back of my card. The caller purporting to be from the Halifax fraud team claimed they were reaching out to safeguard my account due to some suspicious activity they had noticed. I began to feel uneasy when he inquired about how much money I had in my account; it felt wrong, so I promptly ended the call. After that, I contacted my bank directly, and they reassured me it was indeed a scam. I've got to hand it to him, though-he was quite convincing!Halifax5 yearsScam alert!5 yearsI got a call from a number claiming to be Halifax. They said there had been attempts to take money from my account through direct debits and asked if I was aware of it.Halifax5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Halifax, said my account was hacked and I had to send cash to some private investigator to sort it out. Then they asked me for a code from a text, which turned out to be a password reset pin. Total scam!Halifax5 yearsSome bloke rang, claiming to be from Lloyds bank. Odd thing was, he didn’t ask any security stuff but somehow knew the first six digits of my card. He wanted me to confirm my card info as well. Then he told me someone named Collins in Scotland was trying to spend £120 on my card. I said I’d ring up Lloyds myself to check, but he warned that doing so might let a “scam” go through and couldn’t be stopped. When I contacted Lloyds later, they said the number he called from isn’t linked to them at all.Lloyds BankCollinsScotlandLloyds5 yearsCon artist scheme!5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with Halifax, trying to get me to let them into my online banking.

Definitely felt like a scam.Halifax6 yearsSome bloke rang me up saying he was from Halifax Bank but he called me by the wrong surname right away. As soon as I told him that wasn’t my name, he just brushed it off and went on about my card being used fraudulently. I told him that my card was fine and that he probably didn’t even know who I was. He then said he wasn’t clever enough to pull off a scam when he couldn’t even get my name right. After that, he snapped back that if I took care of my personal info, I wouldn’t be getting calls like this. Honestly, watch out, this one felt proper dodgy and dangerous.Halifax Bank6 yearsWatch out, got a call from this number saying they were from HSBC fraud team. Problem is, I’ve never had an account with HSBC and they even got my last name wrong! Didn’t waste any time, just ended the call. Stay safe!HSBC6 yearsSome bloke claimed he was ringing from Halifax, but that’s a load of rubbish. He started asking about switching your accounts or something.

Just tell them to get lost, they’re proper muppets.HalifaxArgos6 yearsGot a call but didn’t share anything personal. I looked up the number and told the caller they were trying to scam me and weren’t actually from Halifax. After that, they just hung up. They also said something about sending a message or email. Felt uneasy when they called me “ma’am”.Halifax6 yearsYesterday, someone tried to empty my Halifax account, which was terrifying. Thankfully, I caught it in time and prevented the loss. Honestly, these folks are really nasty and not to be trusted. (No offence but that's how I see it)Halifax6 yearsI fell victim to these scammers last Friday, losing about £25,000. They pretended to be from Halifax’s fraud department, saying there was suspicious activity and that I had to transfer my money to new accounts for safety. I’ve been poorly this past week, so my judgement wasn’t quite right. I’m absolutely gutted that this has happened, and I might have lost a life-changing amount. The real fraud team and the police are now looking into it. Seriously, be extremely cautious with calls like this - these fraudsters may be awful people, but they sure know how to trick you. :-(Halifax6 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from the Halifax fraud department, but the number was just a single digit off. He was asking about Halifax accounts and ISAs, but since we don’t have any, I just told him and he quickly ended the call. I reckon he might have stolen some info from our Amazon account or something.HalifaxAmazon6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were from Halifax fraud dept.

The guy was speaking in a Pakistani accent. I played along and kept him on the line for about 10 minutes, then told him to call my work phone on Wednesday since I’m no expert with banks. As soon as I said that, he hung up straight away.HalifaxLiverpool6 yearsI got a call from someone claiming they were looking into a fraud case and asked me for my bank info.6 yearsGot a call from this number claiming they were from Halifax, asking if I’d done some certain transactions.
