SCAM USING THIS SITE AND "PRIVATE MESSAGES"

[Oldbaggie]

Just a warning to all that scammers are using this site to send mock "private messages" to users claiming to help them out by fixing issues that - of course - requires you to give them bank details. I nearly fell for it today having been dealing with broadband issue. Sorted with my bank so all safe but the scammers also changed my community profile tag name and email so have had to re-register with new.

I have also advised Vodafone Community Manager who had warned me of poss issues as no legit private messages from Vodafone would ever ask for personal and/or financial info.

We are aware, but always good to post this info for newer members. 

A timely reminder

Thanks @Oldbaggie - I'm glad that you've alerted your bank and that you saw my message before the fraudster hacked your previous Community profile.
