🚨 Beware of Scams and Scammers! 🚔
Our team wants to remind everyone to stay vigilant and protect yourselves from scams that are unfortunately a persistent threat. Here are some common scams to watch out for:
🔹 Phishing Emails & Calls: Be cautious of unsolicited messages or calls asking for personal or financial information. Always verify the source before sharing any details. If you have any doubts, hang up.
🔹 Fake Websites & Links: Avoid clicking on suspicious links or providing your info on untrusted websites.
🔹 Lottery & Prize Scams: If you didn't enter a contest, you likely didn't win. Be wary of anyone claiming you’ve won a prize and requesting money upfront.
🔹 Impersonation Scams: Scammers may impersonate government officials, law enforcement, or well-known companies. Always verify their identity independently.
Tips to Protect Yourself:
✔️ Never share personal, banking, or credit card info with strangers. Remember, Bank's will never call you for your information.
✔️ Keep your software and devices updated, and install antivirus.
✔️ Use strong, unique passwords.
If you believe you or someone you know has been targeted or scammed, please contact Action Fraud UK.
