Scam Alert! BT billing phishing attempt

Hi Everyone,

We have received reports of a new phishing email scam in which bad actors try to entice BT customers to click a link related to your BT bill.  

The email states that your BT bill has had a makeover and it encourages you to log in to view your bill by clicking on a link within the email, the link entitled 'Log in to see your bill'.  Do not click on this link as this will direct you to a site in which your details will be stolen.

If you receive this email please do the following,

 

  • Forward the email to phishing@bt.com then delete it
  • If a suspicious link was clicked or attachment opened/downloaded then run a virus check on your computer
  • If bank details were given out then contact your bank immediately and change your online banking passwords

 

Here is an example of what this particular scam may look like,
