Bank Phishing Scam.

A message from Dyfed Powys Police to beware of criminals that pretend to be from the bank and stating that a person’s bank account has been compromised.

Warning!

  • Criminals are phoning and pretending to be your bank.
  • They tell you that your account has been compromised and that you need to move money to a safe account.
  • A real bank will never do this.
  • If you receive this type of call, put the phone down and do not engage in conversation.
  • Wait 5 minutes before calling anyone else in case the line has been kept open.
  • Phone the number on the back of your bank card if you ever need to confirm details with your bank.

Rhybudd!

  • Mae troseddwyr yn ffonio ac yn esgus eu bod yn gweithio i’ch banc. 
  • Maen nhw’n dweud bod eich cyfrif wedi’i gyfaddawdu a bod angen ichi symud arian i gyfrif diogel.
  • Ni fydd banc go iawn byth yn gwneud hyn.
  • Os fyddwch chi’n derbyn y math hwn o alwad, rhowch y ffôn i lawr a pheidiwch â sgwrsio â’r galwr. 
  • Arhoswch 5 munud cyn galw unrhyw un arall rhag ofn bod y llinell wedi’i chadw ar agor.
  • Galwch y rhif ar gefn eich cerdyn banc os fyddwch chi byth angen cadarnhau manylion gyda’ch banc.
