Threat: British Gas customers are being sent scam emails claiming they are owed refunds

A sophisticated phishing email pretending to be from British Gas is being sent to customers saying they are owed refunds.

Paul Henthorne wrote on Twitter: 'The same fonts, same logos . . . it's one of the best phishing emails I've seen.'

Lily Green, of autoswitching service Look After My Bills, says: 'There are clues to show it's a fake. 

One, if it's too good to be true, then it probably is. Two, starting an email with 'hello [email address]' is a red flag. Alert older relatives.'

A British Gas spokesman says: 'If customers are concerned about an email, forward it to phishing@centrica.com.'
