It looks like a scam: someone posed as a bank representative, even using the bank’s former name, and talked extremely quickly. They already knew my first and last name and requested personal details such as my date of birth. I asked for clarification, but she repeated the same rapid, barely intelligible spiel. I warned that I couldn’t follow if she kept speaking that fast, and she abruptly hung up without responding.

Expertadvies
Spot early red flags in unsolicited bank calls by demanding verification through official channels. These interactions reveal classic scam tactics: callers drop personal details like old emails or names to build false trust, then push for sensitive info such as DOB or new contacts. Fast-talking, poor enunciation, and quick hang-ups when challenged signal urgency to avoid scrutiny. Never share data over unknown lines—always initiate contact via your bank's verified website or branch. If suspicious, report to authorities promptly to protect yourself and others from similar ploys. Hang up and block immediately to disrupt their script.

A caller claimed to represent a bank and mentioned an issue with my account. When I asked for details, she said it concerned transferring accounts. I offered to call back, and she confirmed I could use that same number. I mentioned I'd call the number listed on the website, and she suggested that or going to a branch. It seemed she sensed I wasn't falling for it. I’d been duped by a comparable scam earlier this year, so I'm more cautious now. The call occurred on May 2nd.
I received a call alleging to be from PTSB about an incorrect email on my account; they mentioned my previous address, but I refused to share the new one and told them I'd update it myself, then contacted my bank to report it.
