Fraudulent debit card activity

    Hi all. I had an automated call from my bank earlier (9.30am) to call their fraud team. I did so immediately and was alerted to 4no. online transactions from my current account between 9.20 and 9.24am. I have to say I'm very impressed with the speed of the banks actions in this case. My question is though what actually triggered this suspicion?, I suppose I don't use my current account very often, just to take in my salary, transfer the bulk to a joint account, pay petrol and a couple of standing orders.

    I hope it really was your bank, and not a phishing exercise.You didn't supply any information, did you?

    Hi cml387. I had this concern as soon as I put the phone down so I called the branch who confirmed that it was all legitimate and that I had been speaking to their fraud team. They again confirmed the activity and card has been cancelled.
