Elderly and vulnerable will NEVER be asked for bank details for Covid vaccine by HSC

An alert has been put out by the Department of Health advising the elderly and vulnerable that they must never give their bank details to callers claiming to be from the HSC.

In a warning about SCAM ALERTS currently doing the rounds in Northern Ireland they say: “We are aware of texts claiming to be from HSC about the Covid19 vaccine which asks for bank account details via a link.

“You will NEVER be asked for bank details by anyone in HSC.

“Please SHARE & check on vulnerable/ elderly who may be an easy target for this scam.”
