Coronavirus Free School Meals - A New Scam


Dear Watch Member,

A Message from the Department of Education:

"We have been informed some parents have received an email stating: ‘As schools will be closing, if you're entitled to free school meals, please send your bank details and we'll make sure you're supported’. This is a scam email - do not respond, and delete immediately."
