Fraud Prevention Awareness - YHROCU

Each year shoppers spend millions of pounds in the run up to Christmas and Black Friday and Cyber Monday are now established shopping events which retailers advertise heavily.

Fraudsters and Counterfeiters are also ready to relieve local residents of their hard earned money on fake goods or online scams. It is likely that scams of this type will see an increase this year with more and more of us looking for bargains and deals.

Come meet the team

Officers from the Yorkshire & Humber Regional Organised Crime Unit who specialise in fraud will be in the Merrion Centre from 10am on Friday 15th November with an information stall giving general advice on how best to protect yourself from fraud and in particular online shopping.

This is an opportunity to learn about the signs to look out for and to ask officers from the unit any questions in relation to such matters – we look forwrad to seeing you there!
