Warning - scam asking for insurance number

Dear Blogger

A warning from Wendy Lowdon.

Dave and I have been cold called by another type of scam - this one asks people to put in details of their National Insurance Number or they will be the subject of 'fraud' lol.

I checked it on-line and there have been a lot of warnings of this scam in the local and national press since 22 March. 

I actually went to the trouble - and boy did it take a fair bit of work in order to register - to report it to the Action Fraud team as recommended to do by Gov.UK -  as we had the number of the scammer.
