Warning over bogus NMC emails

Date:19/01/2012

Nursing and midwifery organisations should not give out personal information

We have received reports that nursing and midwifery organisations are being targeted by bogus emails, claiming to be from the NMC, requesting personal data including passport numbers.

Legitimate NMC email addresses always end in @nmc-uk.org  - we do not use any outside providers (e.g. Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, etc).
 
Do not volunteer ANY personal information to scam callers or suspicious emails.
 
If you think that you have been targeted, take as many details as you can and send the details to us, either:

  • email: advice@nmc-uk.org
  • call 020 7333 9333,
  • or take the matter to the local police.
