Scam alert: UK citizens receive fake text messages amid lockdown. If you plan to leave the house, you better pay up.

A fraudulent text message mimicking an official government notice has been sent to UK citizens. The text notified recipients that they have been seen leaving their homes and must now pay a .35 fine that has been added to their gov.uk account. Government officials state that anyone who visits the website, and provides payment details, is actually revealing the keys to their bank account and is at risk of additional fraudulent charges to their accounts.
