The metropolitan police are warning that criminals are posing as officials by knocking on doors and pretending hey are testing for the virus.

Do not open your door and do not let them in. And please alert everyone you know about this- particularly older and vulnerable people.

It’s horrible that people are using this outbreak as an opportunity to fleece people. The safest thing to do is only open your door to people you know and are expecting – especially if you are alone.

Stay safe everyone
