Credit Agricole Fraud: How to Report It and Stop the Money
If money left your Credit Agricole account without your permission, or you paid a scammer, contact Credit Agricole straight away and ask it to block the payment and your card. The first minutes matter most.
Do this first
- Call Credit Agricole’s official line below, or use help inside the official Credit Agricole app. Never use a number from a text, a caller or a search result.
- Give them the transaction details (amount, time, and the account or number you paid) and ask them to block your card and stop or recall the payment.
- Change your online banking password and PIN if anyone may know them. Credit Agricole will never ask for your PIN, password or a one-time code.
- Report it to the police too: see who handles cybercrime in France, and keep screenshots of every message and payment.

Official websiteYour rights as a Credit Agricole customer in France
- EU Payment Services Directive (PSD2), Articles 73 and 74. Your bank must refund an unauthorised payment immediately, and no later than the end of the next business day after it learns of it, unless it has reasonable grounds to suspect fraud. If a lost, stolen or misused card or payment details were involved, your loss is capped at EUR 50, unless you acted fraudulently or with gross negligence. Payments you approved yourself, even if you were tricked, are usually not covered. Source
