Buckden Neighbourhood Watch
Scams
The police have received an alert to say that text messages
are currently being sent across the UK apparently from the
Royal Mail, informing the recipient that they have a parcel for
collection. The text will provide a link requesting that the re-
cipient should click on it in order to make the collection.
Don’t
.
It is highly likely that there is no parcel to collect. Are
you waiting for a parcel? If not, be suspicious and never pro-
vide personal information that could lead to the theft of your
identity and money.
Criminals often use some form of malicious social engineering
in their communications. They might rely on fear or anxiety
such as purporting to be the Police, or Bailiffs. They might use
a financial incentive such as a prize, a gift, a higher interest
rate and in the above example they know people will be curi-
ous about receiving a parcel.
Please don’t click on a link within an email, a text, or any form
of instant messaging service unless satisfied the sender is gen-
uine.
If in doubt, delete the message and try to verify the
message through a trusted means.
Do not reply to the original
message
.
Phone Calls
You may receive a phone call which informs you that your
personal details have been fraudulently used to subscribe to
Amazon Prime. Put the telephone down - it is scam. Amazon
will not phone you asking for personal details.
Action Fraud Advice
Never install software as a result of a cold call. Always ques-
tion uninvited approaches in case it’s a scam. If in doubt con-
tact a company directly using a known email address or phone
number. Feel confident to refuse unusual requests for person-
al of financial information.
