Spelthorne Council has become aware of an email phishing scam which is using a spoofed (false) @spelthorne.gov.uk sender address
The email subject typically contains the word "Invoice"or "New Invoice" and the examples that we have been made aware of appear to have been sent by the leader of the Council (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ), although other @spelthorne.gov.uk addresses may have been used.
The body of the email typically contains a URL link to click on, to see the supposed invoice.
Please be advised that this is a phishing email scam and it is not a message from Spelthorne Borough Council. If you receive this email you should not click on any of the links it contains and immediately delete it.
We can confirm that at no point have your details been obtained from our systems and any personally identifiable information we hold is secure.
Spelthorne Borough Council will never ask for credit/debit card information by email.
