💷 Surprising delivery alert! If you’ve found a £5 note in your post recently, no need to panic—it’s legit! During a recent episode of BBC’s Morning Live, the mystery was unravelled. 🕵️

Our very own scam expert, Nick Stapleton, was on the case after viewers like Pauline got curious about these unexpected cash arrivals. 📨 She received a letter asking her to fill out a survey, sweetened with a crisp fiver!

Nick dug into it, and here’s the scoop: This isn’t a scam but a genuine initiative by the National Centre for Social Research. They’re sending out these surveys with a £5 incentive as a thank you for participating. 🙌 This major research effort covers a wide range of important topics impacting life in the UK, and no special knowledge is needed to fill it out.

🔍 Nick shared some handy tips to spot potential scams:
– Double-check for spelling errors and urgent demands for personal info.
– When in doubt, reach out to the organisation directly using contact details from their official site.
