From: +44 7840 574036

Tracing Notification: You have been in contact with a confirmed case of the latest variant. Please order a free test-kit via: trace.pcrkit-uk.com/order

The fake "Tracing Notification" website will ask visitors to enter their personal and financial information to purchase a test kit.

Therefore, if you have been tricked into disclosing your financial information by the Tracenotify scam text, please contact your bank for help.
