ringing the changes scam


More directed at the retail workers, please be aware we have had a report of people “ringing the changes”

This is when someone comes into the store and asks to change some money (normally a large note) and then with slight of hand and conversation gets money passed back and forth resulting in the shop/ retail outlet handing over more then the change requested. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS SCAM and report any such action to the police.
