Some social housing tenants have received fraudulent calls asking them to pay £10 extra in rentThe NIHE said some of its customers have received unsolicited calls asking them to pay £10 extra in rent so it can carry out repairs to their homes.
The organisation told tenants that it will "never contact you out of the blue to ask for your personal information or bank details".On its website, it warned tenants that the fraudsters "may already have some information about you, and may pose as Housing Executive staff, or one of our contractors". It said there may be attempts to convince customers to make payments over the phone, divulge more personal details or click on links sent to them via unsolicited emails.
