A good idea or yet another opportunity for scammers.
I am inclined towards the latter.

So plod decide to 'tackle' fraud by adopting the scammers contact method of choice...mmmmm, that'll do it!
Plenty of banks follow really bad comms practice too - in fact so do plenty of people who really should know better.It's really annoying and is a big reason scams work.

I was defrauded out of several thousand pounds last year by means of 70+ payments to an online betting account.
The bank paid it back immediately and I never heard about it again - do they do much in the way of following it up or is it often just written off?
