Fraud and Staying Safe Online
Aspire will always ask security questions before beginning our phone conversation with you.
If you receive a call from someone claiming to be from "Aspire" our team will always go through a few security questions first.
We will verify and confirm two things:
Verify your identity by confirming your email address; and
Confirming your Aspire Support Ticket Number*
*If an Aspire Ticket number is not available, we will ask another question based on details provided during your registration with us.
If those two items are not verified, it is not us.
Things we will never ask you to do:
we will never ask for your password or OTP over call
send money to a holding account, safe account or any other account
make a payment or send money for any reason
accept a notification on your phone
ignore a fraud or payment warning
give us your PIN or any personal information
If someone’s claiming to be from Aspire and asking you to do this – it’s a scam.
