Covid pass

Post by BIGRON »

Just had a text from the NHS telling me my covid pass that proves I've been vaccinated is available , after entering my details it's asking me for bank details to pay a 4.99 fee , anyone know if this is right or is it someone just after my bank details 🤔

I think it's a scam. The NHS issues the passes for free.

Generally speaking, anything link you get via text asking you to pay for something is a scam

When you say " like Big Ron", do you really mean old/older people?
If not, what do you mean by that phrase?
Thanks

If anyone texts you asking you for money it's a scam.

To be fair he did have his suspicions and had the good sense to come on here and have them confirmed by interspazz savvy Boarders.
