Hi guys,
So today I got a text message from HMRC about a tax refund with a link attached. I didn’t click on the link at that time and instead forwarded it to HMRC. They responded by saying that they are investigating the text message to see if it’s genuine. At this moment I accidentally clicked on the link and it sent me to a webpage (I think it was gov.uk) where they asked me to fill in my details. I did not fill in any details and immediately went off the webpage. After doing some research I switched of the my phone’s WiFi connection but then turned it back on. After this I changed most of my passwords including my Apple ID password and also installed the mcafee mobile security app. I ran a scan in the mcafee app and it said that there were no WiFi or system threats but I’m not sure how reliable this is. Should I be worried right now?
