π Stay Safe Online & Stop Fraud π» Dear resident, Fraudsters are active all year round, and online scams are becoming more convincing β but a few simple steps can keep you protected: β
Think before you click β Avoid unexpected links or attachments β
Protect your details β Never share passwords, bank info, or security codes β
Slow down β Scammers use pressure to make you act fast β
Update devices β Keep security features up to date β
Verify messages β Contact organisations using trusted details, not those provided in a message π¨ Courier Fraud Alert: Scammers may pretend to be your bank or even the police, claiming thereβs a problem with your account. They might send someone to collect your card, cash, or valuables. Remember: banks and police will never send a courier to your home. Hang up and check using an official number.
If something feels off β it probably is. Report suspicious activity to Action Fraud: www.actionfraud.police.uk
