My sister just received this.
She is only in her fifties so not due for her vaccination just yet.
Apparently they want your bank account details.
Beware

Scammers are always on the lookout for new ways of ripping us off. Now the NHS is having to waste money advertising that you will never be a asked for payment or bank details.

Yes. I started a thread about this a month ago, and at least one other poster has started a thread too.
Thank you for keeping it out there.

My son received one of these too. He is 43.

I believe a lot of these scam emails appeared on the Isle of Wight.
Dreadful but I would like to think that everyone knows that there is no charge for the vaccine.

Sadly though a few could fall for it.
