What's happening
Fraudsters impersonate lenders because the brand lends credibility. When you report an impersonation — a spoof email, a fake website, a bogus caller — you give us what we need to act, and you help protect every other business that might be targeted next.
What to do
Report it via reporting suspected fraud, forwarding the original message where you can. Also report to Action Fraud, and forward scam texts to 7726. If you interacted with the scam, secure your account too — change your password and review sessions. See recognising official communications.
