Had a call from an indian lady who claimed they were from hsbc about a transaction on my account. She tried to take me through security questions but i declined and asked for more details at which point she said they would write to me. I have spoken to HSBC and they confirmed that this call was not from them and that according to my customer file, so attempt has been made to call me regarding my account.
It's legit, just had a call today from an Indian guy saying he was fraud dept of HSBC. His accent was so bad I thought it was a wind up. Anyway he asked me to confirm several transactions and all I said was "yes". He didn't ask for any info from me. Seems legit to me.
Received a call from the number this morning...someone mis_pronounced my name, when I asked what spelling he had, he said "sorry to have disturbed you, have a nice day" and hung up before I could ask who he was! I tried calling the number back, but it was constantly engaged!
Several sites seem to carry reports that this is from HSBC. Rang HSBC today to be told that this number is DEFINITELY NOT ONE OF THEIRS
