The NHS has issued an urgent alert over a dangerous new scam where fraudsters impersonate your NHS GP.
The bogus calls, which will appear on screen as coming from a UK mobile number, tell victims that they must update their GP records or risk being struck off their practice.
But the unsuspecting target will then be asked to hand over sensitive information – including address, NHS number, or bank details – which will be used to steal their identity and their money.
Often, the scammers will impersonate a specific GP surgery, luring the victim into a false sense of security.
Anyone who receives a suspicious call is asked to hang up and call the GP surgery back on its listed telephone number.
