Fraud warning, talk on Stratford, steam train Sat,

Fraud Alert

The police are warning everybody to watch out for online fraud. They say that bogus auctions account for 65% of it. Beware of clicking on unsolicited emails or text messages. They may lead to sites that are mocked up to look like a well-known brand. Don’t give your bank details to fraudsters!

Fake website

A quick glance in the browser bar shows you that it’s not the Apple website, which actually looks like this: https://secure2.store.apple.com/shop/login – if you go there directly yourself.
