Sister's anger as scammers target Rob Burrow funeral

The scammers hope people will click on the fake links in the belief they will have access to the MND hero's memorial service.

Online mourners can then be exposed to malicious software, viruses and other dangerous content.

Rob's sister Joanne Hartshorne was devastated to be sent a vile request asking her to watch the funeral live.

Tagging widow Lindsey and her sister Claire into a post she wrote on Facebook: "Do NOT accept this request. Fake account. Can everyone please report this." Minutes later she posted "ANOTHER scam!!!" screenshotting a page created using the Burrow's family's emotional statement announcing Rob's death aged 41 on Sunday.
