Scam Warning Targeting Islanders Who Are Shielding

Islanders are being warned about a phone call scam claiming to be from a shielding team.

It comes as shielding teams are working across the Island to support the most vulnerable in the community at this time.

Trading Standards says the caller does not give a name before asking about the kind of IT equipment you have.

If you receive a call like this you are advised to hang up and report it via the Isle of Wight Council's website here.
