Households are being alerted to a new [problem] that involves fraudsters purporting to be from the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS).

 

[problem]mers are reportedly calling households claiming to be from the FOS, which deals with complaints from consumers about the financial services industry, and telling the person on the phone that they need to pay £150 to “release” compensation for which they applied.

 

The FOS said it would never "cold call" households and that the service was completely free, so it would never ask for money. It has said a customer had been in touch to warn of the [problem].

 

It advised anyone who had received a suspicious phone call to call it directly on 0300 123 9 123.
