AI Summary
Based on 1 community report
This Newport number is being used for a fake card fraud scam where callers claim your Visa card has been used for a £900 shopping trip. The automated message asks you to press 1 to speak to someone, which is a classic scam tactic designed to connect you to fraudsters who will try to steal your personal and banking details.
The fact that the number shows as "not in use" when you try calling back is another clear sign this is fraudulent - scammers often use spoofed numbers that can't receive incoming calls. Legitimate banks will never ask you to press numbers during unsolicited calls about suspicious transactions. If you receive this call, hang up immediately and contact your bank directly using the number on your card.
