Just to warn people, I received a bogus email claiming to be from the NHS, saying I had been selected for a Covid vaccination and that I should reply within 12 hours.
The thing that aroused my suspicion was that it said selected due to family history and genetic profiling or similar words.
I was about to click on the yes or no, when I noticed the address wasn't NHS.
It could be a computer malware virus stuff, so WATCH OUT.

Our son altered us to this yesterday and sent us a shot of the purported email. I can see some people replying so hopefully the more we can make aware it's a scam email the better.

Re: Bogus vaccination email
I have a couple of friends who have posted on social media about receiving that same email but noticing it does not link to the NHS.

I too received said e-Mail as I was recovering from my knee replacement op. Definitely a scam and when link took me to entering details already registered with NHS.Gov.UK I deleted the message.

Time these scammers were being caught and given quality time in HM Prisons. You hardly hear of any being caught and jailed.

“Quality time in prison” is the problem. Manacle em to the wall and let the rats nibble their bits.
