If Banks are vulnerable...
Fraudsters are bribing or blackmailing bank staff for customers’ information, The Times has learnt. As banks reveal a startling increase in scams during lockdown, the number of bank insiders being targeted by criminal gangs has doubled in the past year.
There is a special police unit focusing on insider crime, where bank staff paid by criminals could compromise the personal information of hundreds of thousands of customers.
