| We have been made aware from a neighbouring force, of a scam that is currently being used by criminals.The suspect dressed as a bogus Royal Mail worker attends the victim’s home address stating that he has a parcel for delivery and that there is an outstanding balance of 55p (amount varies). The suspect states that the victim can only use a chip and pin device and asks them to enter their details. They do so whereby the offender states he has poor reception and goes back to his vehicle before driving off with the card. The card is then usually used at a nearby cash point to withdraw amounts of cash. Please pass on the information, and remain very vigilant and suspicious of handing over your bank cards.
