Saw that when I was on Easter holiday.

I disagree with the advice they gave at the end “call your bank” - they should say “call a number so that you know the scammers haven’t kept the phoneline open, then call the bank” or “use a different phone to call the bank”

I put the receiver under a cushion and leave it there for a couple of hours. The scammers will be paying for the call and will inevitably end it themselves.

Well done to them . Bring down the scammer scum.
