Legitimate fraud department contact
Received a message instructing me to contact this number due to fraudulent use of a card not even in my name. My advice is to contact your bank through the usual channels. Ignore the scammers. Those leaving positive feedback might be deceived or involved in the scam.

Email scam was very convincin, but not legit
This is clearly a scam, with fake positive reviews intended to deceive; the caller claimed there was fraudulent activity on my husband's account, knew his old postcode, and tried to dissuade us from contacting the bank directly, which is not a tactic a legitimate bank would use.
After verifying with the co-op bank, it has been confirmed that this number is legitimate and safe to use

The call was from the coop. I even contacted them to verify it was one of their numbers; it turned out to be their fraud team. After confirming with this number, I called the regular coop number, and two representatives assured me it was indeed theirs.

Smile Bank's fraud team number, though not advertised
This number is not affiliated with Co-op bank, and the call attempting to verify a code for Google Pay registration is a red flag, so it's essential to verify through official channels
THIS IS NOT THE COOP BANK - A FRAUDULENT NUMBER. AVOID CALLING UNKNOWN NUMBERS!!!
