The ‘Take Five’ campaign has been featuring prominently across the media this winter. Run by Financial Fraud Action UK – which represents banks and financial companies - it encourages the public to be vigilant about scams.
The campaign highlights how criminals play on fear and create a sense of urgency to make victims act without thinking.
Typically, they claim a customer’s money is at risk and advise quick action is needed to safeguard funds.
The campaign reminds people to always take a step back and think about what is being asked of them.
Requests to move money to a ‘safe account’ and demands for personal information should all sound alarm bells. Customers should also watch out for fake links embedded in emails.
Alongside the TV and social media activity, there’s also a wealth of advice on the campaign website broken down by category to help people spot phone, text, email, online and other scams.
For example, this is Take Five’s seven top tips on how to spot a scam email:
Once you’ve read through all the advice - or if you think you’re pretty good already - check how up-to-date you are by taking the Take Five, 'Too Smart to be Scammed?' test.
The test gives you eight different text and email message scenarios and asks you to see if you can spot the scams.
It’s a quick and a fun way to find out just how scam smart you are.
