Telephone, email etc.
More scams are being tried....
It would seem that many are targeted at pensioners and made usually in mid/late afternoon.
1) False TV licencing. Emails designed to steal personal and financial information. Since April 2018 victims have lost over £830,000 !!
2) Council Tax refunds. The emails claim to come from 'Council Tax & Payroll Service' or similar. They have a link to a genuine-looking government website. When would WC ever offer anyone their money back??!!
3) Virgin Media. You receive an email seemingly from Virgin threatening automatic disconnection due to invalid billing information.
4) BT. Automated calls telling you that you will be disconnected.
DO NOT click on links or attachments on suspicious emails asking for personal or financial information. If your gut instinct is that something is fishy, you are probably right!
DON'T assume that a phone call or email is authentic even if they know some basic details about you.
Your bank will NEVER call you asking for your PIN or password. If you get any calls like this let your bank know and monitor your bank statements.
If you have been a victim call ACTION FRAUD on 0300 123 2040.
