They just keep trying. If you have received an email from Lloyds, or any other bank, telling you that your payment to ‘Joe Bloggs’ for £2500 is currently going through, then it’s almost certainly a scam. Delete it if you have any suspicions, and contact your bank if you are in doubt. These scams usually come with a highlighted link. Hovering, but NEVER clicking, will show the URL (address) of the link in the bottom left corner of your screen and look like this http://thisisacon.com/537648409 or something similar. It almost certainly will not be a genuine link to Lloyds or any other bank. If it looks suspicious and you weren’t expecting it – then ignore it. Make sure your anti-virus software is up to date too – there are free versions which are better than none at all.
