Bucks Council have shared a 'scam email' being received by certain people in Bucks, surrounding Omicron PCR tests and booster jabs.
Whilst they may look like an NHS email on the front of it, they aren't.
The Council are urging people to NOT click on any links, including in these kinds of emails.
A tell tale sign of a fake email can be that the English is often poor, it may say - "What happen if you are positive".
You can forward fake emails to the Cyber Aware from the National Cyber Security Centre via report@phishing.gov.uk.
For Fake Texts please forward to 7726.
