Watch Out! Fake Covid-19 ‘Refund’ Scams on the Loose

Fraudsters are flooding inboxes with bogus Covid-19 refund messages. These sneaky texts claim you’re owed money but are just a scam to steal your cash or personal info.

How the Scam Works

  • You get a message promising a Covid-19 refund.
  • It urges you to click a link or provide bank details.
  • Victims end up handing over sensitive information or money.

Don’t Get Caught Out

Remember: genuine refunds won’t be sent this way. Never click suspicious links or share your details.
