Phone number ☎️ 08436598041 👆 is reported as a scam involving fraudulent texts and calls claiming to be from First Direct or Nationwide, stating a large card payment around £2,760 needs verification. Recipients often do not have accounts with these banks and are urged to reply or call a provided number, which leads to suspicious interactions or sudden call disconnections. Genuine banks will not request sensitive information via unsolicited texts or demand payment confirmation this way.

Always verify any suspicious contacts directly through official bank channels and report such incidents to protect personal information and finances.

Just got a text claiming to be Nationwide asking me to confirm a card payment of £2,760 and they want me to reply to it. Seems a bit fishy to me.

Got a weird message from this number saying it’s from First Direct but it’s not clear which bit of First Direct - they’ve got insurance, banking and loads of other services. It’s definitely a SCAM! The text asked to confirm a debit card payment of £2760.00, telling me to reply Y for yes or ring 08436598041. Don’t fall for it!

Same as others have said, I got a text from First Direct asking me to reply Y to confirm a card payment of £2760.00. The thing is, I don’t even bank with them! When I tried asking what it was about, the call just cut off suddenly. Definitely looks like a scam, so I wouldn’t bother picking up or replying.

Got a call that looked dodgy, said something like "We need to confirm a debit card transaction of £2760.00 GBP from First Direct. Reply Y to confirm or ring us back on 08436598041". Definitely felt like a scam to me.

Just to add, this is definitely a scam. I've never had any account with First Direct, nor have I purchased anything costing £2760.00. Completely bogus!

I just received a message claiming to be from First Direct asking me to confirm a debit card payment of £2760.00. It said to reply Y if it was me or call 08436598041. I called the number and a woman answered, asking if I was a First Direct customer. After a couple of questions, the line suddenly went dead. Not sure if I was meant to call back or if it was a dodgy scam.

Just like others here, I gave that number a ring. They asked for my name and birthday, then cut off the call before I could figure out if it was some kind of scam. Has anyone got any idea what they’re up to?

Someone called pretending to be from First Direct. When I asked for their info, they just hung up on me. This is the second time I've had this happen. They started by asking if I knew about a big payment on my account today, then tried to get my security details. Once I got suspicious and questioned them, they ended the call straight away. Be careful with calls like this.

Got a call from this number claiming to be Nationwide about suspicious activity on my account. They wanted me to verify some personal details for "security purposes" but it felt fishy, so I quickly ended the call. I then rang up Nationwide directly, and they confirmed they didn't make the call - definitely a scam. Best to just ignore these calls, never share info, and let Nationwide know straight away.

If you get a call from this number saying they’re from Nationwide, it’s a scam. They won’t shut your account over the phone, ever. Just end the call and look up the fraud contact on Nationwide’s official site. Don’t get caught out!

Someone rang me saying they were from Nationwide’s fraud team, saying there was odd activity on my account. I asked them to cancel my card straight away, but then they wanted me to give them certain account info, which made me quite wary. So, I ended the call and then rang Nationwide myself, who confirmed everything was fine and there was no unusual activity on my account.

Pretty clear it's a scam, but whatever you do, don’t return their call. Even if you don’t share any info, they might just be checking if your number is real so they can hit you up with more dodgy calls later. Sometimes it’s even a trick to get you to ring a premium rate line, making money for the scammers. Honestly, just block, delete, and ignore it. Their system will then think your number isn’t live anymore.
