Online scammers trying to ‘land’ unsuspecting ‘catch’ |
Some customers have recently received fake or ‘phishing’ emails claiming to be requisitions or replies to requisitions from Land Registry. Bogus emails often have an attachment containing a computer virus. All genuine requisition emails come from a Land Registry office email ending in .gov.uk (e.g. Durham.Office@landregistry.gsi.gov.uk). Phishing emails are sent from other addresses; (e.g. Durham.OfficeMail [mailto:nick@officemaile.com) |
