Like many forums, we're periodically subject to automated spam and scam posts.
If you see any posts advertising a way to get passports or documentation, please ignore them, it's a scam & we will remove them.
It is a criminal activity, and spammers only need a response or two to make these attacks worthwhile. It can lead to identity theft.
In addition - anyone posing job opportunities or the like should be treated with caution and ignored. We're not currently posting job opportunities in the forum and are unlikely to do so.
We're working to increase the number of moderators we have. However, it's likely spam will be up for a few hours at least before they can be removed. We're looking at preventative technical measures too.
As a general rule, if you see any posts from members that requires you to give over personal information - don't. It's against forum rules to hand over personal information for your own safety and for the NAS's sake.
If you've got any concerns, please email us on community.manager@nas.org.uk.
