Christ do not trust at all
Say you will be given 10 free tickets
Then ask for bank details

These people will call you after you enter a range of random competitions. They will convince you to receive 10 free prize draw tickets and ask you to answer a series of simple yes or no questions (these are commonly used as the question can be manipulated after you have given an aswer) Then they request deposite information for your bank account ( nothing too sketchy right?) Suddenly you will wake up one morning to find out they have arranged a direct debit in your name. "Lotto syndicate" more like Scam Syndicate.

This is SCAM, do not get caught and do not give details of the bank, be careful and do not buy on their persuasion and temptation. BEWARE IT SCAMMERS!!!

I just fell victim of these guys, I don’t know what to do as they have my sort code and account number. I just came here only to see reviews of all these people. Scammers Alert, anyone with information to help please i would appreciate it

Hi someone please help me. I gave them my sort cord and account details. What should I do now?

I have just been on the phone to them and stupidly gave them my sort code and account number, what do I do? Also they can’t take money out with just that information can they?

I just had the same experience as all below and I said I would not share banking details over the phone, that they had my address, name, bday, phone number, email, lucky numbers etc and that they had more than enough over phone. (I never provided any of these details either) She kept telling me in quite lengthy detail how no money can be taken, explaining banking to me. When I said, look I think it’s quite easy to commit fraud with these details she shouted at me ‘no Darcy, you are wrong’ so I just hung up.

It was rather amusing but also frightfully believable.

This is not a company, how can someone say you don't need to pay the still want to to give bank details? I told "James" NO,NOT HAPPENING coz I been scammed before. I wish I never answered

I foolishly gave away my account details and they said they will play the numbers for and then I sent them an email to say I want to cancel and they called me saying I have to wait for January to cancel and because I was cancelling I will lose my money and won’t win. And in November they took £39 out of my account and I contacted my bank and told them this company is a scam and if I could get a refund and they did their investigations and my money was refunded. These people are sweet talkers. SCAMMERS!!!!

Just had them give me a call but straight away it seemed fishy, cut the phone came online and see that I was right to have my suspicions. SCAM!!!

I had first prize lotto call me just now from - 020 4586 0951 they knew all my personal details and told me how I’d won etc and then went on to ask for my bank details, and I said I wouldn’t give my bank details over the phone could they email all details over to me which they did! This is such a scam be careful, they sound very legit.

SCAM. Called by 020 4586 1139
S African woman. She told me I have won lotto, asked me to confirm name address and DOB… I began to worry… she pushed for details of my bank telling me it was safe… I felt her tone and point of view was off, and unprofessional. I asked her to send the details by email… she hung up!

They are a scam! Do not fall for it please.

Like many of you, I am not the wisest telephone customer and also blindly fell for this scam. Yesterday, I received a confirmation of the direct debit they have set on my account. I’ve been waiting for this and here are TOP TIPS for you how to overcome this situation.

1. Once you got scammed, call your bank IMMEDIATELY. They are likely to reassure you that you will be able to cancel any of your direct debits at any time. BEAR IN MIND: direct debits are visible at your bank account ONLY when you make the first payment. Before that, it is impossible to cancel anything. The other significant benefit of calling your bank is that you will have a proof of reporting the scam.

2. Once you get an email stating you have set up an account with First Prize Lottos (or World Lottos), you are being signed up as a member. They WILL proceed to creating a direct debit for £39/month.
DO NOT WAIT, CANCEL A MEMBERSHIP IMMEDIATELY.
By their T&C, in the first 14 days of membership you are eligible to cancel it without any obligations. DO SO. Get in touch with them via email AND phone. Be straightforward and let them know you’ve read their T&C. They will try to change your mind via phone, DO NOT FALL INTO IT. Be harsh. Keep persuading them you NEED to get in cancelled. They will eventually give up and tell you to send a cancellation request via email. Do this in the same harsh, straightforward, and confident manner. Several times if you want. They will also ask via phone the reason why you are cancelling. I suppose, the best way to get away is to make up a reason and not to give in that you are aware of scam. My call seems to be successful - after 3 hours I got an email with confirmation of cancellation (check your Spam folder, it may be there).

3. They process their payments via Access PaySuite LTD. I was able to talk to one of their employees by leaving a complaint on the website. They told me they would pass forward my complaints, however I hardly believe they will anyhow challenge this problem. However, it is again good to have a proof that you are not responsible for the direct debit.

4. Your last resort is closing a bank account with your bank completely and becoming a customer with a new bank. The direct debit will then be cancelled automatically, and you will also get a new sort code and account number so you will not be scammed by this company again.

DO NOT PANIC! I was very much frustrated and stressed once I realised my mistake. But there are people who are on your side, such as your bank helpline and Direct Debit Guarantee. Know your rights and do whatever you can to deal with the situation.

In the email I got from First Prize they say that my membership will be cancelled automatically unless I get in touch in the next 48 hours. Hopefully, no payments will be taken from my account, however if they will I will call my bank immediately and cancel the subscription + ask for refund.
I will keep you updated and let you know whether the direct debit has been terminated.

Good luck to y’all!

I almost got scammed they only took my name adress date of birthday when they asked for my bank details I put the phone down am I safe or do I have to report this ??

First prize lotto! Number: 020 3808 9250

Name of caller: Andrea Martin

They asked for my bank details and tried to explain no money could be taken. I never give my bank details not even the name of who I banked with over the phone and refused to confirm they had the correct number. I’ve blocked them. Don’t fall for whatever scam this is even though they have a legitimate website … or so it appears

Hi I gave my account an sort code number to first prize lotto but from what I know they can't take money out with just them details I stupidly gave my details out

Scam scam scam. South African guy rang to get me to buy discounted plan. Play now pay later guaranteed money back. If it too good to be true it is a scam.

i wish i have read this first.. Its a scam

I got scammed without knowing it, I wish had researched during the call, not AFTER it, I basically had the similar experience as Adetoro:

a lady claiming to be from "First Prize Lotto", not wanting me to refuse the "offer" she was giving, bluffing about winning big and similar things involving syndicates. After reading the user in this page known as "Adetoro" (not the scammer's name, just another reviewer like me), I read it and copied the number at the end, I pasted it onto the phone app's search tab and there it was, the drop that made glass spill: an exact match.

020 3868 8538 IS A SCAM, DO NOT CONSENT OR AGREE TO ANYTHING DURING THE CALL, DON'T ANSWER IT, HANG UP IMMEDIATELY AND MAKE SURE YOUR BANK IS AWARE OF YOUR EXPERIENCE SO THEY CAN DO THEIR BEST TO HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

If you recieve an email from them, screenshot it for proof that it happened, but NO MATTER WHAT, DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK.
