Dear Coordinator
One of our coordinators has contacted me today to say she received a call from a person purporting to be from 'Windows' and that they can see there is a fault on her computer. Would she give them access so they can put it right? no of course was the answer. But she did contact the police and also Action Fraud to report the scam. The phone number used by the scammers was 02030264051 so if you see this on your phone screen - don't bother answering it.
This email really is to highlight this scam again as they obviously do have success with people allowing them access to their computer. So could you please just remind your members and neighbours so as to reduce the possibilities of them becoming a victim.
Thank you for your time and by sharing information let's hope we can reduce crime in our area.
