The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has warned of a popular new scam targeted at millions who are set to receive lump cost of living payments across the UK.
The payments are designed to help ease financial woes over the coming months, after rife levels of inflation and constantly increasing energy bills have ran riot over the last year or so.
In excess of eight million homeowners are set to receive the first part of the £900 means-tested benefit in spring - coming in at £301.
