Quite, I should have opined that if our Govt have seen necessary to set a limit on bank closures of 50k as opposed to the \uk limit of 75k, then perhaps on fraud withdrawals, they may be tempted to do the same?

The 50/75% thing was put out for consultation a few years ago. The banks decided that they didn’t want to pay for 75% as it’s funded by a levy. Unlike the Uk.

Many scammers are very clever these days...the best approach is to assume anything by email or a random incoming call is a scam.

Only part with money when you yourself call directly about parting with money. And never open any links in a 'your finance' related email, even if it looks genuine.

All banks have a number you can ring yourself (that you can look up...and do not use a number contained in an email or text, which itself could likely be a scam).
