I think my dad just got scammed. Someone pretending to be his bank told him to transfer some money to a 'safe account'. Luckily it wasn't too much. In the UK you can get through to your bank by dialing 159 to check it's really them

Goodness me, it's quite common now worldwide, the scammers would text or call, sadly.
They make a lot of money as people don't realise the risks. Banks would never ask you do that and anyone can pretend to be them on the phone.
The banks usually inform the people about this via sms/emails, but somehow the cammers manage to take advantage and fill their bags.
