I received a message purporting to be from AgeUK. I showed it to my son. He said I am taking you to the bank as this is a scam. The bank agreed and thanked him for reporting it.

That’s awful. So did your son have to take you to the bank to get your money back, and will they refund you? I hope so.

There is scam doing the rounds where you get a message purporting to be from Age UK. they say they have a limited number of kits and one is available for you. I was a little bit concerned as they sent me an e-mail and it landed in my in-box and not my spam folder.
