Scam Alert – Email claiming to be from BT – 07 November 2013

[wendy]

The email is not from BT and is a phishing email attempting to gain personal or financial information via the link given in the email which will go to a fake BT website.

BT advice is that they will never ask customers to verify account details by email, further advice and a list of genuine BT online addresses is available on the BT website.

If you receive a scam email like this you can report it to Action Fraud via their online fraud reporting tool or to Citizens Advice consumer helpline via their online reporting form.

For advice on protecting yourself from phishing scams you can watch a short advice film on the Get Safe Online website.

tha22222 wendy,
I had someone phone me 2 weeks ago claiming to be from the damart prize draw dept and wanting my birthdate , address and postcode to verify it was me.
I said, you have my details so you tell me what they are and I will verify them, they said they couldn't continue the call and rang off. 
I rang damart to tell them and they said they  would never phone customers to  ask for their personal details as they take security very seriously.
never give personal details over the telephone to anyone.
