IMPERSONATION FRAUD in IPSWICH
How impersonation fraud affects Ipswich residents
Impersonation fraud is one of the most distressing types of APP scam because victims believe they are following instructions from a trusted authority. Criminals spoof phone numbers so calls appear to come from your bank, HMRC, or the police. They create convincing scenarios — your account has been compromised, you owe unpaid tax, or you need to move money to a ‘safe account’ — and pressure victims into making immediate transfers.
Ipswich and Suffolk residents are protected by UK-wide PSR mandatory reimbursement for bank transfer fraud.

Why your bank may owe you a refund
PSR mandatory reimbursement
Since October 2024, banks must reimburse eligible APP fraud victims up to £85,000 for payments via Faster Payments and CHAPS within 5 business days.
Failure to detect impersonation fraud patterns
Banks should identify transactions consistent with impersonation scams — such as urgent transfers to new payees, ‘safe account’ transfers, or payments immediately following a phone call. Banks should also have systems to detect when their own identity is being spoofed.

Impersonation Fraud claims in Ipswich
No. We operate entirely remotely and serve clients across the whole UK. There’s no need to visit an office.
Criminals use number-spoofing technology to make calls appear to come from your real bank’s phone number. This is exactly why banks have a duty to detect and prevent these scams through transaction monitoring and fraud warnings. The fact that the call appeared genuine is not your fault — it demonstrates the sophistication of the fraud.
