Scams have become a lot less easier to spot over the last couple of years and con-artists seem to be getting more clever in finding ways to steal hard earned cash.

This comes as the number of scams carried out through Facebook and Snapchat have fallen, suggesting Instagram may be the new sphere for organised criminal gangs. The banking giant warns they are perpetrating fraud on a mass scale.
