More information on COVID-19 Vaccination Scams

I have written a couple of times, very recently, about COVID-19 Vaccination scams, and other scams doing the rounds (blog), including my receiving an email from what appears to be the NHS, asking if I wanted to book an appointment for a vaccination (blog). It's notified as coming from noreply@nhs.gov.uk but actually came from takahashi@noies.co.jp 😟 I reported it, and it looks like many others have reported suspicious emails too, as I have just seen a Full Fact post reporting similar (website).

If you do receive similarly suspicious emails about any subject, please forward said emails to the National Cyber Security Centre at report@phishing.gov.uk and suspicious text messages to the free number 7726.

Indeed, if you believe you are a victim of fraud you can report to Action Fraud by telephone at 0300 123 2040 or visit www.actionfraud.police.uk

Be careful what you open and/or click on folks!

A Scam, of some sort, Warning re COVID-19 Vaccination Appointments

I've received an email from, what appears to be the NHS, asking if I want to book an appointment for a vaccination, looks like noreply@nhs.gov.uk but actually from takahashi@noies.co.jp 😟 Not sure about you, but I very much doubt a Japanese company is dealing with NHS vaccinations in the UK, though you can never be sure with the shower we have in government looking to line the pockets of their pals and themselves, but I doubt it in this instance...

Be careful what you open and/or click on folks!
