Bendigo Bank scammers on the prowl.

This morning I received a call from people who claimed that they were from the Bendigo Bank fraud department. I twigged pretty much straight away and asked them to call me back because I was out shopping.
They did and l have them a little bit of information but nothing that would give them access to my accounts. I then asked again could they call me back because I was about to have a meeting. They did and l then informed that l had contacted the Bank to confirm that they were scammers and that l used to be a policeman, and l always record my phone calls.
They hung-up shortly after. 👌

Hu @PeterE ! Thank you for sharing this with us! Always a good idea to never give out any information we think may be harmless but these scammers can use to access our accounts. Take care and stay safe always! Cheers!
