Several websites are purporting to offer heavily discounted goods, the firm's administrators warn.
Wilko shoppers are being urged to avoid being scammed by a raft of fake websites that have been set up after the retailer fell into administration.However, Wilko has stopped selling goods online, and is also no longer offering home delivery or click and collect services.Wilko announced earlier this month that it was going into administration, putting 12,500 jobs and its 400 stores at risk.
"These websites are not genuine and have been set up to scam users, the only legitimate Wilko website is www.wilko.com. "If you are keen to get a bargain from Wilko, you can only buy in-store at the moment so anything online should be taken with a pinch of salt. If you or a loved one do fall victim to a scam then contact your bank immediately and report it to Action Fraud or Police Scotland."Make sure that the website address is correct and matches the site you intended to visit.
Legitimate websites usually have contact information such as a phone number, email address, or physical address. But some copycat websites might have contact details, so don't rely on them alone eitherCheck for reviews of the website. These can give you an idea of other people's experiences with the site and whether it is trustworthy
