 I would like to draw your attention to the most recent episode of Rip Off Britain, which aired today and is available on BBC iPlayer. This episode covers a number of fraud types that have recently been mentioned within the EFAS alerts, including:

-          Fake social media adverts

-          Investment scams (focussing on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies)

-          NHS Track & Trace

-          Courier Fraud

The programme explains them clearly and provides advice to prevent falling victim to these scams. Please encourage your distribution groups, members and friends and family to watch.
