Please be alert to a new council tax refund text message scam that is being reported from various parts of the country.

If you receive a text of a similar nature do not engage. Delete! Never give out personal or financial details to anyone who contacts you unexpectedly. If you are unsure, phone the number on your council tax bill.Please make your friends and family aware of this scam
