Users of popular email services such as Gmail, Outlook and Hotmail have been urged to be on alert as another scam does the rounds. It is one of many that fraudsters are using to try to take advantage of people during the cost of living crisis.
The latest is a fake message that informs victims that they are owed money by HMRC. The email will claim that it's due to an overpayment during the last financial year.
As with many such scams, recipients are then asked to click on a link to claim the refund. This link should not be clicked, reports the Express.
