I received this from my Bank (RBS) today.
"Customers are reporting theft from their accounts after responding to fake emails about TV Licence cancellation.
Criminals send phishing emails or text messages, pretending to be from the TV Licensing Authority. They want you to click the link to get your phone number and the name of your bank. You will then receive a call from the criminals, pretending to be from your bank's fraud team and persuaded to move your money to a safe account or give away card reader codes.
Many variations of this scam exist; from bogus COVID-19 fines to the promise of free Supermarket shopping vouchers.
Please remember;
We are working hard to keep you safe from fraud. If you think you may have given away your details to a scammer, please contact us immediately – we can help."
