SCAM - Covid notification test

[pje16]

just had a text from 07759-129469
saying I have had contact with someone who has tested postive for covid and to order a test kit from
"https://testing-kit-home.com"
My NHS app shows nothing untoward
It is a SCAM

I had the same message. The link they wanted me to click on was the same as the one you've posted.

I didn't click on it - the fact it wasn't an NHS or government URL suggested (to me) it was a scam.

I wonder how many will be fooled, especially as the end of self-isolation is being mooted as imminent (28th Feb?) which might lead quite a few people to decide to skip it anyway...

I had just been to lunch with an associate I know very well and haven't seen for years
and I thought bl**dy typical
The link was blocked at work by our firewall
and on my phone it didn't even work

Thanks for your post @vrdiver
good to know it wasn't just me

I did click on it and the site seems to be down.
