We’re urging everyone in our community to stay vigilant against fraud and scams. Criminals are constantly finding new ways to trick people out of their money and personal information — from fake emails and phone calls to online shopping scams and investment fraud.

If you think you’ve been a victim of fraud or cybercrime, don’t stay silent. Report it to Action Fraud.

🔹 What is Action Fraud?
Action Fraud is the UK’s national reporting centre for fraud and cybercrime. It’s the place to report scams and get advice on how to protect yourself.

🔹 How to Report:
📞 Call 0300 123 2040

🔹 Why Reporting Matters:
Your report helps the police track down criminals and prevent others from falling victim. Even if you’re unsure, it’s better to report and get advice.

🔹 Top Tips to Stay Safe:

Never give out personal or banking details over the phone or email.

Be cautious of unexpected messages or offers that seem too good to be true.

Check websites and sellers before making online purchases.
