I tried to post this message earlier but it didn't appear.
I just received a phone scam call suggesting that I can claim a pension bonus. It was quite a convincing recorded message from lady with a Welsh accent but an international phone number. It carries a Trading Standards warning (see below) so best to be aware for you and, maybe, elderly relatives.

As I was writing, I received another phone scam about an unspecified 'refund', this time from a (quite severe) lady with an English accent. If I don't act immediately, I lose part of my 'refund'. If I do, I will lose a whole lot more. These scams are getting more professional. Take care.
