	Purporting to be from the NHS and looking fairly genuine. "NHS we have identified that you are eligible to apply for your vaccine. For more information and to apply follow here...... (email address that you won't need) We need to prove ownership of address....... (rat smelled?) Then the usual requests for info which will drain your bank account. Such a shame the virus isn't programmed to get these lowlifes. As we all know, there is no charge for the vaccine, nobody needs to 'prove ownership of our addresses and I'm pretty sure it will be our GPs who will notify us. Stay safe folks.

	Isn't it amazing what Governments can do with the internet? But unfortunately, find it impossible to stop scammers :-\| :-\|

	Always a lowlife somewhere ready to take some poor innocent's money. But it is getting scarily like any of us could be caught on a bad day if we are not alert. Thanks for the heads up on this one Island I had not seen it.
