FYI if you have an active Amazon Prime membership and you get an email that looks like this, it is a phishing-type scam. From the sender's domain it looks like it originated in Romania. Always be sure to read the fine print with these messages!

When you go to the #NHS do you expect your details to be *routinely* handed to a credit reference agency (@Experian) for checks?
Patients' details at some Trusts have been handed over for years, and now we find @NHSEngland / @NHSImprovement want a whole bunch more to do it!

We received a call from a victim of SIM Swap Fraud today. The root cause was password re-use that enabled fraudsters access to his mobile provider’s accounts. Security is all linked.

If you are thinking of using the #FaceApp consider Section 5 of the ToS & that you grant FaceApp a perpetual, irrevocable, nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, fully-paid, transferable sub-licensable licence to use your content (and which may be of your friends or colleagues)

The @BBCBreakfast covered the FaceApp (ageing app). All fun stuff. A pity they didn’t take the opportunity to consider the embedded trackers like Facebook Analytics & Google Ads, or even the significant collection of device & behavioural data via the app faceapp.com/privacy
