About the number

Fraudsters calling from 01157060036 impersonate Halifax Bank, claiming to set up unauthorised direct debit withdrawals (e.g., auto payments). Reports confirm it's a phishing scam-no legitimate bank initiates via unsolicited calls without verification. Hang up immediately, don't share details.
