MY MOBILE NUMBER.
Finally. At the bottom there is the FSCS symbol.
This is on my Android mobile fone over 4 web type pages, in total, that open in quick sucession.
It is accessible via the Android navigation button, some times called the Overview button.
I've no idea how, or where, it came from.
What's going on?
Please do not suggest ringing Santander. Creating a forum post is normally far quicker.
Thank you to all responders.

I don't understand your post. What, exactly, is the problem?
What are you trying to do?
And by what method (app? website?).
After what line? What denotes a new line? What is now accessible via the 3 line navigation button?4 -

Please reread my OP.
I don't understand what's going on. Scam?
I'm not trying to do anything.
The page/form i get is as described in the thread title. Each "commer , " in the thread title DENOTES a new line on the form.
The form was accessible via the Android navigational button lll , 1 of 3 at the bottom of most Android sreens.

I've removed the commas (no need for quotation marks).
Do you have a "security number"? Usually one supplies selected digits from such numbers so that message does look suspicious. However, I don't have a Santander account and have nothing actually useful to say. Sorry.

No one does, as your OP is missing all the relevant information.
Where is the message coming from? What are you trying to do? What device are you using? What?8 -
What happened when you entered your security number, as requested?1

I can only assume I'm one of the 1st to receive what appears to be a very dangerous phishing attempt.
Tks 4 your response0 -
What were you doing when this appeared? Your posts are not making a lot of sense. As a general rule, things don'tjust appear on your phone. Was this a text? Were you trying to set up your banking app? Was this while you were in your banking app?
