Fraud aware
We have been made aware of several scams circulating where residents could be contacted by phone, letter or email purporting to offer council tax refunds.
Fraudsters are taking advantage of the time of year when residents will be receiving information about the upcoming year's council tax requirements.
Please be cautious of any communication which claims to be from the government as it does not oversee council taxes.
Tell tell signs of a scam are spelling mistakes, a long unfamiliar senders email, and asking for bank details.
Be cautious.
