Received a text purporting to be from HSBC stating I set up a £187+ direct debit with Argos, yet I don’t hold an HSBC account.
Fake HSBC Alert — Don't Fall For It! - +44 7564 412287 (07564 412287)
Summary — +447564412287
Expert Opinion
A single text message masquerading as HSBC alerts to a fabricated direct debit with Argos, despite no banking relationship, raises immediate red flags for phishing attempts. Such scams prey on urgency to extract personal details or prompt clicks on malicious links. Never respond or share information; instead, verify directly with your actual bank via official channels. Forward the message to 7726 to report spam, and block the number to prevent further contact. If concerned about your accounts, monitor them closely and consider enabling two-factor authentication for added security.
