Fraud

Agreed on 8 July 2026. Updated on 8 July 2026

As a Neighbourhood Policing Team, we are supporting the local community by raising awareness of fraud and scam prevention, engaging with vulnerable residents, and working closely with partner agencies to identify and safeguard those at risk.

Fraud can be reported through REPORT FRAUD, the UK’s national reporting centre for fraud and cyber crime. Reports can be made online at UK’s Home for Reporting Cyber Crime & Fraud – Report Fraud or by calling 0300 123 2040.

If the fraud is happening at the time, a suspect is present, or there is an immediate risk of harm, residents should call 999.

For non-emergency police matters relating to fraud or concerns about vulnerable victims, reports can also be made via 101 or through local neighbourhood policing teams.
