Free Fish & Chips at Manchester on 5th Oct

See link for more detail.

The van will be in Piccadilly Gardens from 12pm - 3pm on Thursday 5 October.

Thanks to Santander you can snag yourself a free fish and chips for lunch on Thursday and all you need to do is show staff a scam text message or email.

While this might sound extremely shady and borderline illegal it is almost the complete opposite. Banking company Santander want to help educate the UK about fraud using the nation's favourite dish.

The scheme is called 'Phish and Chips' and Santander are bringing it to Manchester's Piccadilly Gardens on Thursday October 5.

It will be a unique food van that accepts phishing emails and smishing (sms phishing) tests as payment for fish and chips, following research revealing a staggering 86% of Brits regularly receive these scams.

To get yourself a meal you simply present staff in the van with a scam phishing email or smishing text in exchange for a portion of fish and chips, along with a side of advice on avoiding the tricks criminals use in their attempts to steal people’s money and identities.
