Be Aware I recently received a text purportedly fom Argos ' You have apayment of GBP246. Request payment and allow 3 days for it to appear in your account' along with a html link to click I rang Argos customer services who told me that they would send a letter reference a refund and not by text. They also said that they are aware of this type of phishing material and it shouldn't be acted upon Luckily u have me smug Argos should make bigger effort to inform the public I opened a private browser on my laptop and manually typed the link given in the text and on return it took me to the Argos web site https secure and legit I suspect that the link in the text has a sub-link that will load the fake site.
