Amazing to tell you that @MoiraONeill is back in the FT fold (hurrah!) "Anyone under 50 should expect their state pension start date to be pushed to age 70 and, in the case of the under-45s, possibly age 75"😱 ft.com/content/83e25a…

THREAD🧵 Would you spot this text was a scam? 👀 I’ve been speaking to @ranvir01 on #lorraine this morning about an Apple Pay text scam doing the rounds… this fake DPD one very similar - here are my tips:
⚠️ I always START from the position that ANY text, email or WhatsApp message containing a link is a scam. Rule number one!
⚠️ I was expecting a parcel on the day I received this text - but checking the retailer’s email about my order, I could see the delivery was not from DPD - and in any case, I have their app

Please RT this thread - a new scam involving fake NHS texts about vaccines is spreading fast (thanks to my follower @Chrislike16 for alerting me). Do not click on links like this in texts. Next tweet shows how they will attempt to harvest your financial details #ScamAlert
The link leads to this fake (yet convincing!) website to fool you into entering card details etc A big clue this is fake? Spelling errors! Plus you don’t need to pay - the NHS is free at point of use and over 80s are the priority group for vaccines. If in doubt, call your GP ❤️
As @AnneAshworth says, scammers know we’re in a fragile mental state, and that these kinds of “urgent - you must act now” messages will catch us off guard. Others: “you’ve come into contact with Covid” “your internet will be cut off”or “HMRC has issued a warrant for your arrest”
