08448842539 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08448842539 👆 is reported as a widespread scam involving text messages claiming unauthorised transactions on NatWest or Barclays accounts, often naming recipients personally. Many recipients do not hold accounts with these banks, confirming the messages are fraudulent. The texts urge victims to call a specific number or reply, resulting in potential charges or requests for personal details. Callers report long wait times, no response, or suspicious behaviour upon contact, with some suffering financial loss and having to cancel cards. Despite some messages originating from numbers resembling genuine bank contacts, official banking institutions deny these claims, advising customers never to contact numbers provided in unsolicited texts. Users strongly caution against engaging with these messages or calls and recommend verifying suspicious activity directly through official bank communication channels.

I recently received a message claiming to be from NatWest, stating they detected some unusual transactions on my online banking. However, given that I don’t have an account with them, I’m absolutely certain this is a scam. What a ridiculous ploy!

Got a text with my name too. I do bank with Natwest but I NEVER click on these links. It said: “Dear [my name], there’s been some strange activity on your online banking. Please log in to confirm it’s you” and then gave a dodgy link. So glad I didn’t click.

Got a message saying it was from Natwest and even used my name, but I’ve never had an account with them! Very strange!

I got a message like this too, and I don’t even have a Barclays account. Thought I’d be clever and rang the number before checking who it was from, but it either got blocked or I just landed on an answering machine. Watch out for it!

Watch out, total rip off! I was a bit daft and gave them my info, and now I've had to cancel my bank card. On top of that, I got hit with a £30 fee just for ringing them. I reckon Barclays should really be held to account too, since the message came in a text from their usual number. It said something like: "A transfer of £4000 was attempted on 25/01/2016 - was this you? Reply Y if yes, or call 0844 884 2539 with your customer number if not." Don’t fall for it!

Got a message saying there was an attempt to withdraw £4000 from my Barclays account and if it wasn’t me, to ring 0844 884 2539. I naively phoned them and had to wait about 10 minutes, being second in line! I then went directly to Barclays to report it. Don’t be fooled by these, even if they claim to be your bank!

Got a message from 'Barclays' about a supposed £4000 transfer attempt - yeah right, like that’s happening! Total scam, no doubt about it.

A fraudulent attempt was made to transfer £4000 on the 25th of January 2016 - was that you? If it was, just respond with a Y. If it wasn't, please ring 0844 884 2539. Don’t forget to have your card reader handy.

I got a message from +44 62 8937 8, supposedly from Natwest, but when you properly look into the contact info it shows a different number. It’s a classic scam, no doubt about it. They might charge you £1 per minute, with most of that going straight to the scammers. Best thing to do is always call your bank directly, never trust these random numbers.

Got a call from NatWest on 08448842539. They said there was a £4000 transfer tried on my account on 22nd January. They asked if it was me and told me to text ‘y’ if it was. If it wasn’t, they then wanted my customer number. Definitely a scam.

Got a text from 08448842539, so I called back and gave them my customer number, but I reckon it was the wrong one because they just went silent after that.

I just got a message saying someone tried to move £4,000 out of my NatWest account - which is weird cos I don’t even have one. So I called the number back and spoke to a bloke. Told him straight up I don’t hold an account there, and then he suddenly went quiet. I just ended the call after that.

Steer clear of this number-don’t pick up or respond to any messages. The caller is a scammer!

Got a call from NatWest about trying to transfer £4000. I stupidly stayed on the line for like 14 minutes! The number they used is worth avoiding.

I keep calling, but no one ever picks up. I think I might’ve just lost a bunch of cash because of it.

They’re still at it, sending texts about some £4000 transfer. Total scam, don’t fall for it.

Got a text about a transfer try, same kinda thing as the other post. The sneaky bit? They used Barclays’ real phone number! Don’t ring back, it’s either a dodgy premium rate line or some kind of con. Stay clear!

Got a text from this number, and funny thing is, I don’t even have a Barclays account - never have! They’re just as dodgy as those other scammers out there, honestly. What a joke lol

i got a message supposedly from barclays saying someone tried to move £4000 and to ring 08448442539. rang barclays on their usual number and they said no transfers had been attempted. seems like a dodgy text to me.

Just got a message saying to confirm a £4000 transfer by texting yes or ringing 0844 884 2539. Total scam, no doubt about it. My Barclays account hasn’t seen any action in two years, and there’s only like £1.80 in it. Nice try though, had a good laugh at that one!

Clearly a scam. They tried to move £4000 from an account I don’t even have with Barclays. The weird bit is that the texts came from a genuine Barclays number.

Just like the rest, they tried to move £4000 outta my account and told me to call Barclays on 0844 884 2539 if I hadnt made the transfer. Thing is, I dont even have an account with Barclays! I reckoned I’d check the number anyway and phoned it, but ended up waiting on hold for what felt like ages - kept saying I was still in the same spot in the queue. Eventually I gave up and hung up.

Got a message supposedly from ‘Barclays’ about a £4000 transfer on 14/01/2016. It asked if it was me, saying reply with ‘y’ if it was, or call 08448842539 if not. Felt dodgy to me, especially since that number sounds like a pricey premium rate one. Definitely looks like a scam, or at least a way to trap people into big phone charges.
