Tony Ruscoe Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 Barclays customers were hit by a similar scam towards the end of last year. It's quite easy to make these dummy websites look convincing, which is why it's really important that people learn about these scams! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
