HSBC Text scam warning

This week the NN team have been made aware of fraudulent text purporting to be from HSBC bank.

The bogus text will inform you that there is activity on your account and ask you to cancel via a link they have issued if this was not authorised by you.

The scammers will then use any personal data you input to try and gain access to your account. Do not click on any links or give details through text if you are in any way unsure of where the text has originated from.
