What's happening
Vishing — phone-based fraud — relies on authority and urgency. A convincing 'fraud team' may ask you to 'confirm' security details, read back a code we supposedly sent, or move money to a 'safe' account. Caller ID can be faked to look like us. The pressure to stay on the line is itself the warning sign.
What to do
Do not share your full password, a code, or move any money. Hang up and call the number on your statement or credicorp.co.uk to check. We will never ask for your full password or push you to move money. Report the call via reporting suspected fraud. See how we verify your identity.
