Morrisons issues warning to customers after receiving reports of digital scams

Morrisons is warning customers about a scam that is doing the rounds.  

The new con has already caught out customers, so the supermarket is now urging us all to be extra vigilant.

Morrisons revealed a number of emails, texts, and social media posts have emerged 'for the purpose of fraudulent activity'. 

The fake messages in question have been offering innocent shoppers £40 worth of vouchers - allowing scammers to harvest personal details, ManchesterEveningNews reports.  

The warning shared by Morrisons read: "We are aware of a number of spam emails, text messages and social media posts from third-parties posing as Morrisons for the purpose of fraudulent activity.

"If you receive one of these suspicious messages, please do not click any links, open attachments or enter personal information. 

"We would never ask for your personal details in order to redeem a voucher.  

"If you believe you have been contacted please contact us on '0345 611 6111' or call Action Fraud on '0300 123 2040'.

"You can also visit 'www.actionfraud.police.uk' to report fraudulent activity to the authorities."
