Fraudsters are sending out a wave of scam emails purporting to be from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) that claim you have to appear in court.
Concerned members of the public have reported receiving the email entitled You’ve been witness summoned to court.
The email encourages the recipient to click on a link to view their start time and case details.
This link is likely to lead to malware which could affect your computer.
This email has no connection to the CPS and anyone receiving the email should not download any attachments or click on any links.
If you receive one of these messages rreport it to Trading Standards via Citizens Advice Consumer Service on 03454 040506.
