"Fraudsters contact you to say you're due a financial reward as a thank you for paying your council tax by direct debit."

Thing is Banjax you just know that someone's going to fall for it.  As they'll just hear they can get some money out of it just by agreeing.

Worrying though that there's still a lot of people out there that still don't get it - "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't."
Give it a few weeks and there might be a news follow up saying just how many bought it  Roll Eyes
