Beware, there is another e-mail scam about!

I had an e-mail last night just as I was closing down. All written in Dutch and the only recognisable word among other info was the Covid test. Just deleted it and closed it down.

This morning, however, about 15 minutes ago checking my e-mails, there was another one. This time in Dutch including a number and underneath the message was repeated in English including a patient number for a so-called covid test result which I could have within 15 minutes via the internet. First I have never had a test, second, the patient number was all wrong and thirdly there was no form of identifying letterhead. Then again, I did not open the e-mail fully, only curious fools would be tempted. BEWARE!!

Assume (well actually you should never assume) that everything you get is a scam. You will never win anything, nothing is awaiting delivery, no tax refunds. NEVER click on a link. Your computer and its software are always working. Your internet link is working fine.

If you believe that you have won something then go directly to that site and enter your details (e-mail from a company trying to deliver will have a TRACKING number, go to the site and enter the number. DO NOT click on the link with the number in it).

You have been warned.

You are so right @Tanith and those scammers are actually working on the assumption that on whole we are a greedy and inquisitive lot, where, with fingers crossed, we fall for it hook, line and sinker.

And then there was a call from so-called "Sky" who tried and very kindly informed me this morning that my internet use will be cut off if don't pay my bill immediately. Never had any business of any kind with that company. It was one of those calls that got through the net and after cutting the sweet-talking lady off, I added the number to my very long blacklist.
