Hey, hi, hello! This is definitely a little more serious than most of my other topics but I've decided to share what's been going on the past week, mainly because I wish someone had said this to me earlier (and that's pretty much been all I could think about the past week lol). I've linked a few sites just to stay informed but I'd definitely suggest taking at least 15 minutes yourself to read up on how to protect yourself and some safety precautions to take when dealing with someone/something suspicious.

Main things a bank will generally never ask you to do: https://moneyfacts.co.uk/guides/money-guides/things-your-bank-will-never-ask-you-to-do/

And if you're confused over something happening in YOUR account, don't be afraid to ask questions and do your own research and digging until you're 110% sure everything is okay and safe. If your gut is telling you something seems suspicious, follow that instinct and don't be afraid to take your time when dealing with something as serious as personal and bank information!
Stay safe out there, my friends!
