Texts from criminals trying to steal your money

I've been getting quite a few recently from "Hermes" telling me there's a parcel waiting for me and to follow a link. Or from a bank I'm not even with claiming a payment has been tempted from a new device, again with a link to follow.

Yes they're 'phishing' hoping you bank with them
The Royal Mail/Hermes ones they'll ring you pretending to be the bank (as they ask for phone number on form) and say your card is being used etc. Because they have your bankcard details they 'are obviously genuine'. They'll say your account is not safe and they've opened a new one, and tell you to send all your money to 'your' new account
Scum of the highest order
 
I’m contemplating changing my number as I regularly get dodgy texts and silly robot voice calls telling me a warrant is out for my arrest due to unpaid taxes.

Changing your number will make no difference - they soon find any new ones.
 
If I get call from any third party I assume it is a fraud.
Don't recall getting any calls from my bankers over the years.
95% of calls to our landline are from scammers.
All getting a bit out of hand. Sadly a lot of folk are getting caught out😠
 
I have had 4 scam calls today. I am ready to hurl abuse and they don't even answer, Why do they put the phone down when you answer.
