Cost of living payments fraud
You may have seen in the media that there has been a significant increase in scammers attempting to obtain personal information from customers by sending out texts suggesting that customers are eligible for cost of living payments.
Please remember that you do not have to do anything. If you are eligible: -
• you will not need to apply for the payment
• you will will not need to call the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP)
• the payment to you is automatic
• DWP will never ask for personal details by SMS or email.
If you are unsure about a text, you should [report it on GOV.UK]
