Fraudulent activity in EMEA using the Wells Fargo identity
- Wells Fargo has learned of fraudsters impersonating the identity of Wells Fargo and its employees to defraud members of the public. We do not provide retail banking or retail investment services in our locations outside of the US, so please be vigilant if you are approached in relation to retail products offering from non US locations. We have notified the Financial Conduct Authority and we are advising victims to report the scam to Action Fraud.
- Please be aware of false emails and calls from persons pretending to be Wells Fargo advisors and do not provide any documents or confidential information by email, phone or mail. Do not make any money transfers without having undertaken usual and reasonable verifications.
- We take the safety and security of our customers very seriously. If you would like more information, or if you think you have been a victim of a fraud scheme, please contact our anti-fraud team by email or calling: +44 (0) 203 942 8353.
