concerning

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'worrying' is the definition.
('concern' can be a synonym of 'worry')

'the queen with scamming going round' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'queen' could be 'er' (abbreviation for Elizabeth Regina) and 'er' is present in the answer.
'going' could be 'on' (both can mean functioning or activated) and 'on' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'about' is the link.
