Covid-19 Scam Text Message

Covid-19 Scam Text Message

NSW Health has issued a warning to the thousands of Australians waiting on COVID-19 test results after some residents were told they had to pay to confirm their results.

People have been receiving text messages from a number claiming to be NSW Health and asking for donations in order to confirm whether they had tested positive to the virus.

The health organisation has warned people this is a scam and they would never ask for donations in exchange for a person's results.
