Tired Old Scams Abound Yet Again

Various email scams seem to be doing the rounds again. They aren’t very sophisticated but some of you may not have seen them and be tempted to comply.

The emails will appear to come from someone you know, perhaps a fellow club member or someone from the WPF. (Note, those people haven’t been hacked. It is just someone emailing you from a random email address and changing it to make it look like it comes from the person you know).

If you reply, you’ll get a message something like the one shown below. This is a copy of an actual message received by a member of a Camera Club.

Report all such messages to report@phishing.gov.uk
