Fraudsters hack into Home Office website

Fraudsters hack into Home Office website

Cunning computer hackers have hijacked the Home Office crime reduction website and used it to carry out an elaborate online scam.

"The fraudsters set up a fake page on the website then sent millions of web users a "phishing" email purporting to be from an Italian bank, asking customers to visit the page and confirm their bank details".

I thought the Home Office motto was building a just, safe and tolerant society?
