There has been an alert from Action Fraud in relation to a phishing scam, where fraudsters are impersonating Tesco.
The fake Tesco emails are offering ‘free vouchers’ during the coronavirus outbreak and you are asked to click on a link, which takes you to a convincing looking phishing website that is designed to steal your login, personal and financial information.
If you receive one of these, please do not click on the link and delete it and report to Action Fraud.
