Local Fraud Message - Metropolitan Police Engagement

Metropolitan Police Engagement

Please be aware that there is a group of people going door to door pretending to be Home Affairs Officers. They have documents and letterheads from the Home Affairs Department and claim that they need to verify that everyone has a valid ID for the upcoming census. They rob houses. 

Someone will come to your house and say I want to take your photo/fingerprint according to some scheme. They have a laptop, a biometric machine and a list of all the names. They show the list and ask for all this information.

Please be aware that there is no such initiative by the government.

Do not give anyone your information. Everyone should be vigilant and aware.

Send this to all your community groups. Please inform your family and friends.
