Nationally there have been reports of individuals targeting the elderly and administering fake vaccinations for a fee.
Regionally/Nationally we are also seeing fake emails being sent to the vulnerable and elderly purporting to be the NHS and asking them to click on a link to obtain vaccines. They are then usually asked to provide a payment or bank details.
The NHS will never ask for payment or bank details from patients.
