Neighbourhood Watch are warning residents across Derbyshire not to fall for a phishing email trying to trick people into paying for a fake coronavirus digital passport.

As part of the scam, fraudsters posing as the NHS send an email informing recipients that they can now apply for their ‘digital’ coronavirus passports that show they have been vaccinated to enable them to travel abroad.

However when clicking on the link in the message, people are then taken to a ‘convincing’ yet fake NHS website which asks recipients for their personal bank details to pay for an alleged administration fee.
