About 70,000 people may have fallen victim to the biggest ever phone fraud.
Crooks rang them up and posed as bank staff to steal tens of millions of pounds. Police say the probe is the “biggest fraud operation ever run in this country”. There have been 120 arrests in the UK.
The potential UK victims of the con will be alerted by police this week. It is part of Britain’s biggest ever cyber fraud probe involving a phone number scam website.
