  • Watch out for SCAMS

    Be aware of telephone and internet scams

    Sadly, there are individuals at large taking advantage of others.  If you think you’ve been scammed or become aware of any such incidents, report them to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040 or Norfolk Trading Standards by calling 0800 223 1133.  If you need advice, call the Citizens Advice Consumer Helpline on 0808 223 1133 and if you are in immediate danger, contact the police on 999.

    Below is a list of COVID-19 related scams compiled by Norfolk Trading Standards, you can sign up to receive scam alerts here.

    • Be aware of people offering miracle cures or vaccines for coronavirus – there is no specific treatment for coronavirus (COVID-19).  Treatment aims to relieve the symptoms until you recover.
    • People impersonating healthcare workers, claiming to be offering ‘home-testing’ for coronavirus – this is a scam and these kits are not currently available to buy.
    • Emails saying that you can get a refund on taxes, utilities or similar are usually bogus and they are just after your personal and bank details.
    • There are lots of fake products available to buy online that say they can protect you or cure coronavirus. These will not help and are designed to take your money.
    • There are new mobile phone applications that claim to give you updates on the virus but instead, they lock your phone and demand a ransom.
    • Your bank or the police will never ask for your bank details over the phone.
    • People offering to do your shopping or collecting medication and asking for money upfront and then disappearing.

  • Algy’s Drive-Through Farm Shop

    We, at Algy’s farm shop in Bintree, are supporting local communities with a supply of groceries. We have stock of most things, but supply is variable.

    We have set up a “while you wait drive-through service”: come to the shop, pick up the grocery list, choose your items, hand the list through the window, wait while we pick and pack, you’ll be called over to pay and collect.

    We have implemented this to keep a safe distance between staff and to enable customers to not be in close proximity.

    We are looking at rolling out a delivery service too, but this will take a week or so.

    Please see an example of the Algy’s Food Order Form. All items are subject to availability.
