Typical tricks involve claiming there’s been fraud on your bank account and then telling you that you need to act urgently to be safe. They’ll try to get you to reveal your personal details or to transfer money into what they claim is a “safe account”. The police, banks, communications companies or any other official body will never ask for your online banking password or other personal details and will certainly not ask you to transfer money to a new account or hand over plastic cards to a courier. As long as you’ve been sensible the law protects you if you become a fraud victim – and that includes a hacked bank account.
