Email from the police!

Just had an email from the Police Information centre.

"North Yorkshire Police are holding a fraud prevention/advice event in association with staff from Barclays bank, Parliament Street in York on Monday 8th April 2019 between 12 and 2pm.
Advice will be available on fraud prevention, recognising fraud, staying safe online, protecting your personal and security information and what to do if you are a victim of fraud."
What a splendid idea - will definitely go.

Nothing sinister, May, they have a 'community' email centre and keep us up to date with what is happening in our area. It is quite useful.

They do the same down here Tabs.

Maybe they do, May.

I remember signing up to this ages ago, after I had a problem and the police had to get involved.

They only warn of scams, and crimes that have already been committed over the last few days.

At the moment there is a spate of shed break-ins going on, and also number plates and catalytic converters being nicked.
It just warns you to be vigilant and report stuff.
