| Cyber criminals are phishing to ‘land’ victims |
|
Land Registry customers have told them that they are currently receiving fake emails that pretend to be from LR. These ‘phishing’ emails state: “The document attached is an official requisition, reminder or letter from Land Registry. It is not a circular and relates either to an application you have lodged with us or a property in which you have an interest. No paper copy of the item of correspondence will be sent to you. The document is in ‘HyperText Markup Language’ (HTML) which replicates the appearance of the hard copy version. You will need to open the document with your internet browser” If you’re unsure about an email claiming to be from Land Registry; Do NOT open the attachment or follow any links, as this may infect your computer with a virus. Computer viruses can help criminals to steal data from your computer |
