Santander Scam Text 2022 - Added a Device From Your Account

The Santander Scam Text

SANTANDER ALERT: On 14/04 16:11 you added a device from your account. If this was not you visit: hxxps://onlinebanking.review-log-alert.com

If you do get a suspicious looking email or text, here's some important advice.

• Look very carefully at emails or texts that come out of the blue supposedly from a bank or another trusted organisation.
• An unsolicited text or email from your bank or other genuine organisation will never ask you to provide passwords, personal or financial information in a message.
• Be extremely wary of links and attachments and never enter your banking details after clicking on a link. An email link may take you to a fake website which imitates Santander.
• Watch out for language that says things such as ‘you must act’.
• If you get an email or text from somebody asking you to change some payment details don’t do it without checking it out thoroughly first.
• If in any doubt at all, don’t reply. Phone the organisation sending you the text or email on their official phone number which you can look up on their website.
• If you're concerned or think you've responded to a scam email or text or given your details out to the wrong people, you should call us first on 0800 9 123 123 and report it to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040.

If you were tricked by the scam text, please contact Santander for help.
