May 2022 Hillingdon Cyber Crime Report

This week it was revealed that Britain now suffers losses to fraud approaching £3billion a year – and nearly three out of four adults have already been targeted by a scammer this year. It is therefore very important to stay alert and to avoid simply giving your money away to these fraudsters.

If you have elderly or vulnerable relatives, please warn them to be alert to these scams. Also remind them about doorstep callers and the need to Stop – Chain – Check before they answer.

The latest report for Hillingdon can be found here.
