I got an SMS today from [phone] with the following message:

'HSBC: You added a new recipient MR C JONES on 22-01-21 at 13.00. If this was NOT you please visit: https://securepayees-hs.online'

I don't bank with HSBC and never have done but a warning for anyone who does, just in case.

Posted in CB for wider audience.

Thanks for the headup, tigger.

I've had a couple of these tigger. Just ignore.

They’re all out in force at the moment! Scam call after scam call! Banks, Amazon, Microsoft and BT. We had 2 calls before 7am last Saturday! Both recorded so I can’t even scream at them!

I’ve had one from Halifax and one from HSBC. I don’t bank with either of them.

[bookbinder]

Did you try to trace the phone number?

[Vagus]

Carol, I even scream at the recorded ones!
We’ve had a whole load of them on our landline recently, a very posh English gentleman’s voice telling us our amazon account has been used to buy something.
It’s the only time I use the ‘F’ word.

So you don't tap '1' as requested?

You can do if you want to Roy. Your freedom of choice ;o)
