Take Five Graphic

Stop: Simply taking a moment to stop and think before parting with your money or information could keep you safe.

Challenge: Could it be fake? It’s ok to reject, refuse or ignore any requests. Only criminals will try to rush or panic you.

Protect: Contact Vanquis immediately if you think you’ve fallen for a scam that’s affected you and report it to Action Fraud.
