๐จ Be Scam Aware! ๐จ Weโre seeing an increase in reports of fraud attempts in our area. Please take a moment to protect yourself and your loved ones: ๐น Donโt rush. Scammers often pressure you to act immediately. ๐น Never share personal or banking details with anyone who contacts you unexpectedly. ๐น Be cautious of links in emails, texts, or social media messages โ even if they look genuine. ๐น Verify before you trust. If someone claims to be from your bank, a delivery company, HMRC, or the police, hang up and contact the organisation directly using their official number. ๐น Look out for neighbours, especially those who may be more vulnerable. If youโre unsure about something, trust your instincts โ itโs always okay to say no and check. ๐ Report scams to Action Fraud at 0300 123 2040 or visit: www.actionfraud.police.uk ๐ฎโโ๏ธ If you believe someone is in immediate danger or a crime is happening now, call 999.
