The scammer will usually contact you by email. The email will ask you to click on a link to review and sign a digital document. The email may say it’s to finalise a payment or benefit.
This is a scam. We won’t send you a link to digitally sign a document.
The email may look like these examples:
Scammers want you to feel worried, so you’ll act quickly and click on a dodgy link.
Never click on a link in an email or text message. This is how scammers steal your money and identity.
If you clicked on a link or gave personal information to a scammer, call our Scams and Identity Theft Helpdesk.
