People are being warned over a phishing scam which is doing the rounds in Dorset.
The sender of the email claims to be from BT stating that a payment has been missed, followed by a request for the payment.
It then contains a link which it urges the recipient to click on and fill out personal details, including bank details. A police spokesman said: “Be on your guard do not let these scammers fleece you of your hard earned cash. Do not give out personal or banking details.”
