Scams

29 October 2021 By parishclerk

Some tips that might help you avoid being scammed –

STOP
Take a moment to stop and think before parting with your money or personal information.
CHALLENGE
Could it be fake? Its ok to reject, refuse or ignore any requests. Only criminals will try to rush or panic you. Do not invite strangers into your property. Close the door. Call the Police if your immediate safety is compromised.
CONTACT
Contact a family member or friend to discuss the situation before entering into any agreement with a cold caller.
Protect
Contact your bank immediately if you think you’ve fallen for a scam.  Report the scam to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040.
