A new scam is targeting fans of one of Australia's most beloved retail institutions - the local Bunnings.

The Federal Government's Scamwatch service said on Twitter it had received reports of an email impersonating a communique from the store chain.

The email offers people the chance to participate in a "free loyalty program" - no doubt music to the ears of any Bunnings enthusiast.

But Scamwatch has warned against looking into it.

"This is an attempt to steal your personal information," the organisation said.

"Do not click on the links in these emails and delete them immediately."
