In recent weeks, police reports have shown a continued trend towards businesses and employees falling victim to phishing emails, phone calls (and texts) from scammers claiming to be working for HMRC, the NHS (Covid-19 vaccine), broadband providers and high street banks. This has to lead to financial loss, lost customer data, and compromised social media accounts.

• Tips on staying secure when filing your tax return.
• Guidance for small businesses when dealing with phishing scams.
