LKA recommends that people who fell on a fraudulent application page should be informed by the police station on the site or online guard. More information about which data has been recorded and uploaded, as well as screenshots are helpful. If, for example, the bank details are specified, the victims should also inform their bank. The documents received such as a positive ETA notice should also be tested for authenticity-there is a specific risk of not allowing other people to enter Great Britain.
