60 Second Security - Courier Fraud
Coming Soon….Hot off the press!
Greater Manchester Police have already created 8 films with series 1 and 2 of #60SecondSecurity which are videos all around simple security advice. Currently with 40k hits on Youtube and Flickr.
Designed to provide easy step by step tips, including advice on products and how to install and use them, helping to make you and your property that little bit safer.
Series 3 will be coming out in May 2014 but in the mean time we have created a special one off episode due to an increasing and very concerning crime called ‘Courier Fraud’.
Courier fraud is where someone phones you and tries to get your card details & pin number claiming to be from the police or your bank, investigating a crime. During the call they will try and make it seem genuine by asking you to hang up and ring your bank, but this is a trick.
Your card will be collected and then be used to empty your bank account.
To report fraud call police on 101 (999 if it’s an emergency), Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040, or report it online at www.actionfraud.police.uk
