The PCR Home Test Scam Text

From: + 44 7935 711389

NHS Test and Trace has identified you as a contact of someone who recently tested positive for Omicron. You must book a home test kit: hxxps://pcr-home-test.com

On the phishing website, visitors will be asked to purchase a testing kit and will be asked for personal and financial information in order to do so. But, if the requested information is submitted, it will be sent to the scammers behind the fake text, who will use it fraudulently.

If you have been tricked into submitting your financial information at pcr-home-test .com, please contact your bank for help.
