Thanks Elegran. there are so many scammers about.

I have had a text from Hermes asking me to click on a link as they were unable to deliver a parcel. I didn't and checked.
If you click the link they say you have more postage to pay and would then get your payment details.

Not from BT , but from a scammer. The "From" email address says "[email protected]" but is nothing to do with BT.
They want you to "verify your billing details". Fat chance! BT will NEVER ask for sensitive information in this way. Bin it.
