If you’ve already responded to a scam, end all further communication immediately.
Call your bank directly and cancel any payments that haven’t yet been made. For speed and ease, you can call the 159 hotline instead – this will connect you directly with your bank.
Report the scam to action fraud, www.actionfraud.police.uk or call 0300 123 2040 (England, Wales or Northern Ireland). If you’re in Scotland, report a scam via consumer advice, www.consumeradvice.scot or call 0808 164 6000. You can also report scams to Police Scotland on 101.
