The caller claims to be from the Standard Bank fraud division, attempting to deceive recipients into making payments by pretending to investigate fraudulent activity on their accounts. However, users have confirmed with Standard Bank that these calls are indeed a scam, with the goal of extracting money from unsuspecting victims. To avoid falling prey to such tactics, it's essential to exercise caution when receiving unsolicited calls, and never provide personal or financial information to unverified callers. If in doubt, it's always best to contact the relevant institution directly to verify the authenticity of the call.
