Yes that’s why the price dropped so much the dividend is 23 p so in theory it’s dropped about 3p today
Right!
We have qualified for the dividend now right?
How can anyone even begin to think that's anything other than a scam boggles my mind.
Me importantly.. They have your details! :D
In at 470.1p
Topped up at 4.69
Today is ex-dividend
Good one Clued
I've previously told these types that I work for Trading Standards so will be very interested in taking their details and how they came across my details and my consent, so that i can check them out. The line usually goes dead but hopefully not before I'm deleted or flagged on their database.
Forward div of say 36p , @7.25% still gives £4.96/share . I guess anything at 7.5% ,ie £4.80 or below will be picked up quite quickly .
I’d buy more but only below 4.50. I’ll hopefully reinvest my divi but not decided how high I’d buy at with the reinvestment , or take cash
I’ve set a buy order for £4.60 - so about a 7p drop more than dividend amount.
..we have a nice divi to collect in may....sp recovered very well sine the Sept 23 dip ..glad like a few on here added plenty at the time...gla
100% it's a scam.
What annoys me is I have to jump through hoops to open any form of bank account and yet scammers don't seem to have any problem. I appreciate some scam accounts will be overseas but to transfer from a UK bank account still requires a degree of cooperation in this country.

''Almost certainly a scam. I will fire this email off to Aviva……..''
WHY?
Aviva are not the people to deal with boiler room scams.
You should be giving details to the FCA
V. Surprised you don't think it can be anything but a scam. Drop them pdq and block further communication
Paul30661, Had a call maybe 10 years ago from a scammer trying to buy my Unilever shares and saying they already owned over 30% !! Kept the guy on the phone for 30 minutes, probing him about his knowledge re legal requirements to notify the markets at different ownership thresholds, he hadn't a clue it seemed !! My view was that I'd wasted his time and maybe saved someone else being scammed. Tbh, view these scammers as filth. Unilever encourage investors to let them know so that they can forewarn others.
Tomorrow.
When is ex dividend date?
It’s obviously a scam . Also when a company or a fund owns 30% of a company it has to make a takeover offer and no fund or individual owns more then 30% of Aviva let alone 41%
Without doubt it’s a Scam…
I would never fall for that..!! I have a trusted “Nigerian Prince” that looks after all my financial matter's…
I don’t think we are going to see Aviva holding on to @ £5 this year, half way through the £300 million buybacks already, Burning @5/6 million a day…?
? I doubt that Aviva will be the slightest bit interested and there is very little that they can do.
It would be better in terms of protecting others if you report it to Action Fraud and also the Fnancial Conduct Authority (although almost certainly the company is based overseas so they won't be able to do anything)
Almost certainly a scam. I will fire this email off to Aviva……..
With reference to your recent conversation with Mr. John Cortez/Acquisition Department, we are attaching the standard Non-Disclosure Agreement, which confirm that you will not disclose confidential information about the acquisition of Aviva PLC to other parties.

Quite sure it’s a scam
This is at least the 6 th board I have seen with this type of thing.
If it sounds too good to be true .
It then must be a scam.
Nobody doing a take over would do this when they can buy on the open market a lot cheaper.
Ffs! It's obviously a scam.
I'd be more worried that this boiler house operation has your details, and if you gave them any of your time, you're now on their suckers list which will result in more calls and scam money making schemes.
They can buy them normally for £4.91 and there must be better ways of buying a company than cold calling individual investors. I'm fairly certain it is illegal to acquire a company like this
