One billion Android devices at risk of hacking
More than a billion Android devices are at risk of being hacked because they are no longer protected by security updates, watchdog Which? has suggested.
Fraudsters are claiming to be from Action Fraud contacting people in order to steal personal and financial details.
We would urge people to not click on the links or attachments in suspicious emails, and to never respond to messages that ask for personal or financial details
Under no circumstances will Action Fraud, or a police force, ask you to make a payment in order to recover money that you may have lost.
At least one fake number has been identified relating to this scam and Action Fraud are working with their disruptions team to close this down.
If you think you have been a victim of fraud, report it to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040 or via our online reporting tool.
