RESIDENTS have been warned about a recent email scam.
The advice, from Flintshire Trading Standards, concerns a message purporting to be from Santander.
A spokesman said: "The email advises the recipient that they suspect an unauthorised transaction has been made on their account and therefore, have disabled access to the on-line Santander account.
"The email then directs the recipient to a link in order for them to restore access to their account.
"Do not click on this link or give any personal or financial details.
"If consumers wish to check their accounts, contact Santander using the telephone number found on previous statements."
