Hi Everyone,
We have noticed a new scam currently circulating by text message and this scam is particularly vile.
The SMS appears to come from the NHS informing the recipient that they have been selected to get the COVID vaccine. Within the message, you are encouraged to click on a link to an application form to 'Prove ownership of address'. If the link is clicked you are asked to enter your bank account details including your card number.
Please do not click on this link, this is a scam. If you have received this message please,
- If bank details were given out then contact your bank immediately and change your online banking passwords
- Forward the text to 7726 (an easy way to remember this is that it spells out SPAM on the keypad)
Here is an example of this scam
