Scammers are spoofing bank phone numbers to rob victims
It can be a very convincing trick… “You can check the number in your display online sir. You’ll see I’m really calling from your bank.” That is, of course, if you are unaware that phone numbers can be spoofed. Then again, they wouldn’t be successful scammers if they weren’t convincing. If you suggest calling them…
My mobile provider flagged this as potential spam/scam caller. Other websites say it’s a market research company TKW Research. My number is on the do not call register so I’ve reported the number.
