Virus Scams.....

I notice scams are going on in Bath,Poole etc contact being made to vulnerable people offering tests and pretending to be N.H.S.....Asking for payment BankDetails etc no genuine Person acting for the NHS will ever ask for cash or Bank info so be warned there are lots of vile rogues out there.
 
I have had quite a few over the last couple of months pretending to be from BT and other utilities (some of which I don't use) claiming that my payment has been rejected and could I change payment methods by following a link. Looked very impressive but I knew it couldn't be genuine and hovering over the email sender it also confirmed a bogus address. Most of these scams originate from Asia or Africa Scamming vulnerable people, especially on health related matters, is truly deplorable, but these people don't care. I have referred mine to my trading standard contacts, as they are working with the police to identify scammers and to warn people who may be vulnerable and have been targeted
