Scams via Meta’s platforms Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram have soared, TSB Bank has said as it urged the parent company to protect consumers.

The bank said that 80% of cases in its main fraud categories come from scams on Meta platforms.

If you have been the victim of a scam perpetrated on one of Meta’s platforms, we want to hear from you. When and on which platform did it take place? How did it affect you? Did you report it to Meta, and if so, what did they do? Were you satisfied with their response?

We are also interested in hearing from people who have been defrauded on other social media sites.
