🚨 SCAM ALERT: Fake NHS Phone Calls 🚨

Kesgrave Town Council is urging residents to be vigilant following reports of a new phone scam targeting our community.

The Scam: You may receive an unexpected call (often from an '07' mobile number) with a recorded message claiming your GP is "updating their registry." It asks you to press '1' to set up a mobile app so you can keep attending your local surgery.

Please remember: The NHS will NEVER cold call you asking you to press buttons to maintain access to your doctor. Scammers use this high-pressure trick to steal your personal and financial details.

If you receive a call like this, hang up immediately.

👉 For full details on how to spot spoofed numbers, protect yourself, and what to do if you’ve already shared information, please visit our website: https://kesgravetowncouncil.gov.uk/all-content/urgent-alert-protect-yourself-from-nhs-scam-phone-calls

Please share this alert with friends, family, and vulnerable neighbours to help keep our community safe! 💙
