Received a Halifax alert about confirming a payment via message. Then this number texted asking for yes/no. Halifax denied it's their number—unclear how they spoof it, but worrying 😟.

专家点评
Calls from unknown numbers mimicking banks like Halifax or MBNA often signal a clever scam tactic. Scammers send texts posing as your financial institution to confirm or cancel payments, tricking you into replying with sensitive details. Halifax and MBNA have confirmed such numbers aren't theirs, highlighting how fraudsters spoof legitimacy. This rapid response after your bank reports suggests possible data leaks, though banks deny involvement. Stay vigilant: never respond to unsolicited texts asking for yes/no confirmations, always verify directly via official app or website. Block the number and report to Action Fraud for protection.

Post reporting a fraud to my bank, this mobile texted that card payments were halted. Bizarre and alarming how fast these crooks learn your moves—makes me doubt bank staff leaking customer data
Apparently linked to MBNA, but this number isn't featured on their site at all!
