Phishing & Impersonation Scams

Protect yourself from identity thieves and fake websites

Phishing and impersonation scams are among the most dangerous forms of fraud, designed to steal your personal information, passwords, and financial details. These sophisticated attacks use fake emails, websites, and phone calls that perfectly mimic legitimate organizations to trick you into revealing sensitive information or making fraudulent payments.

Understanding Phishing & Impersonation Fraud

Phishing and impersonation scams involve criminals posing as trusted organizations, government agencies, or legitimate businesses to steal your personal information, login credentials, or money. These attacks have become increasingly sophisticated, using official-looking emails, fake websites that mirror real ones, and convincing phone calls to manipulate victims into revealing sensitive data or making payments to fraudulent accounts.

What to do if you've fallen victim to phishing or impersonation fraud

At RecoverItBack, we regularly assist victims of phishing and impersonation scams, particularly when fraudulent payments were made from bank accounts following deceptive communications. These cases often involve fake HMRC demands, bogus bank security calls, or fraudulent investment opportunities presented through official-looking websites.

Common Types of Phishing & Impersonation Scams

2

Vishing (Voice Phishing)

Scammers call pretending to be from your bank, government agencies, or tech support companies, using urgent scenarios to pressure you into revealing passwords, PINs, or making immediate payments.
