Police chiefs urge people to be vigilant over Covid-19 vaccine scammers
Police chiefs in Wolverhampton have urged people to remain vigilant over Covid-19 vaccine scammers targeting the vulnerable.
Reports have been made of people receiving suspicious calls and texts offering the jab – and asking people for their bank details.
Residents have been urged to remember the Covid-19 vaccines are only available on the NHS and the vaccine is free of charge.
Superintendent Simon Inglis, of Wolverhampton Police said: "Much of the pandemic has brought out the very best in human nature, but occasionally we have seen the worst in human nature – scammers trying to extract money or personal information in this way is a depressing example of this.
"Please make sure you and your family don't fall victim to them."
