Phishing is a type of online scam where fraudsters use deceptive emails, text messages, or websites to trick people into providing sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. The aim of phishing is usually to steal personal or financial information, which can then be used to commit identity theft or fraud.

Scam emails may contain links to harmful websites that can infect your computer or steal personal information. If you receive a suspicious call, hang up. Forward suspicious emails (as screenshots) to report@phishing.gov.uk and suspicious text messages (as screenshots or screen recordings) to the number 7726. Avoid clicking on links that are unexpected and take time to research and seek advice from trustworthy sources. If you think you have been a victim of fraud, contact Action Fraud immediately by calling 0300 123 2040 or visiting their website.
