Barclays call scam? How to stay safe! - +44 345 703 4034 (0345 703 4034)

I recieved a call from this number claiming to be from Nationwide BS, which seems suspicious.

My caller ID flagged this number as suspected spam, and the caller claimed to be from Barclays, but a verification check with the real Barclays Customer Services confirmed it was a scam

I just recieved a text from this number, saying somthing about barclays, but I dont have a account with them, its a scam

A call came through from what appeared to be an Indian call centre - the background was quite noisy and chaotic. A woman with a pronounced Indian accent stated she was from "Barclays Bank," where I have an account. She was aware of my full name and requested my date of birth, at which point I declined to provide any personal details over the phone. According to data privacy regulations, any entity that records calls must inform you and obtain your consent for recording personal conversations - there was no such notification or request - yet all call centres record conversations for "quality and training" purposes, especially if they represent a UK bank. For this reason, I have marked this number as "Dangerous."

This is undoubtedly a fraudulent call.

A letter urging my husband to call this number turned out to be a scam. Barclays confirmed its illegitimacy, and the branch verified it as fake. Always verify through official channels and report such incidents.

A woman identified herself as being from Barclays, attempting to reach a 'Holly Whittaker'. I was completely taken aback when I persistently requested a password. Regardless of her explanations, without the password, she wouldn’t get anything from me apart from my insistence on ‘what’s the password’! The takeaway is, if you want to ascertain if a trusted organization is genuinely trying to contact you, provide them with a password to keep on record and inform them they must provide it before you even acknowledge their call. If banks can request passwords through their systems, there’s nothing stopping you from asking them for one when they ring you. Lol.

Today, I received a call from this number. As it was Saturday, I was uncertain about the caller's identity, so I chose not to answer. After the call ended, I quickly searched online for information. They didn’t leave any voicemail, which left me relieved after seeing all these reviews.

A text message was sent stating that an account is overdrawn and instructing to call this number.

At 12:29 today, a woman called from 0345 703 4034 to discuss 'personal banking'. I was driving and preoccupied, so I informed her I was occupied. She suggested I call back through the app. Upon returning home, I contacted Barclays via the app, and they confirmed this was not an official Barclays number. This is a scam number! Always verify before sharing any information. I reported the number to Barclays.

The caller falsely claimed to be from Barclays, but after verifying with Barclays, it's clear that this is a fraudulent call.

I recieve a call from this number, they claim to be my bank and ask me personal question, i told them to go away, its a scam, becarefull
