Watch out for 'Voicemail' scam


Reporting on various scams is getting a bit repetitive, but it's only by getting them out there that helps to protect people from being caught, writes Brian Byrne.

Don't click the link, there's no 'missed voice message', just an attempt to get your personal financial details so the scammers can access your bank account.

It's a pain, but just flick them to 'delete'.
