Beware More Scams

 

Increase In Scam Callers Demanding National Insurance Numbers

 

We have been made aware of a number of scam calls taking place across Lancashire where an unknown number – usually with a London area code (020…) or a mobile number has been leaving voicemails and automated messages stating that the call taker’s National Insurance number has been compromised, and to ‘Press 1’ to be put through to the fraud team.

We have also been made aware that should the call not be answered, a voicemail is being left saying that an officer has been dispatched to their address to arrest them. This is not true and causes unnecessary alarm and distress.

This is a scam – and under no circumstances should personal information be given as you could be conned out of money, or personal information. The alleged fraud team would be likely to try and obtain bank details and secure a payment.

We ask that you share this post to keep friends and family informed, and should you have any concerns to please report to Action Fraud at www.actionfraud.police.uk

If you have elderly & vulnerable neighbours and family, please do let them know about this scam to help to protect them. You can do this by clicking the share button at the bottom, and either via WhatsApp or email. Alternatively, this message can be printed.

Stay safe.

Sexual Violence

This week is Sexual Violence Awareness week and I would like to take this opportunity to raise awareness of the fact that specialist local support services covering all crime types remain open across the county despite the ongoing pandemic. Commissioning these services to support victims and vulnerable people is a key part of my role and the support they offer can be invaluable in helping anyone affected by crime to move forward from what has happened. Please find information and contact details for local services below.

Best regards

Clive Grunshaw
Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire

Sexual violence
Sexual violence can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, background or sexual orientation. Lancashire Victim Services (LVS) offer specialist emotional support and practical help to anyone affected. The team are on hand to offer support and guidance, even if the crime has not been reported to the police. Independent Sexual Violence Advisers can offer advice and practical help to ensure anyone affected is safe, support people through the criminal justice process and offer support at any related appointments. LVS’ phone lines and online chat are open but the service can also provide access to a range of self-help resources for anyone that doesn’t quite feel ready to talk about what has happened. The team will work with anyone affected at their own pace and find the best way forward together. Anyone in need of support can get in touch by calling 0300 323 0085, by using the online chat at www.lancashirevictimservices.org or by emailing [email protected].

Domestic abuse
Domestic abuse services and refuges across the county also remain open and ready to offer support. Lockdown instructions as a result of COVID do not apply if you need to leave your home to escape domestic abuse. Abuse can happen to anyone, at any age, any gender, from any background and sexual orientation. It is never acceptable and you are not to blame if it is happening to you. You can find details of support organisations across Lancashire at www.noexcuseforabuse.co.uk/help-support.

Young Victims of Crime
Specialist support for young victims of crime is available through Nest Lancashire. The team can support children and young people aged 8 to 18 affected by any type of crime. Young people or anyone wishing to find out more can contact the service by texting NEST and their number to 60777, by emailing [email protected] or by calling 0300 111 0323. To find out more about the services please visit www.nestlancashire.org.   

Hate Crime
Anyone affected by hate crime can contact Lancashire Victim Services. Attacking someone, simply because of who they are is never acceptable and can have a long lasting impact on those affected. If you have experienced hate crime you can find out more about the support available at www.lancashirevictimservices.org/victims/are-you-a-victim-of-hate-crime/. You can also chat online at www.lancashirevictimservices.org, call 0300 323 0085 or email [email protected].

All crime types
Lancashire Victim Services can offer emotional support and practical help following any type of crime. The team will talk to you to assess your needs and can help with safety planning, emotional wellbeing and information to help you to move forward from what has happened to you. Find out more or chat online at www.lancashirevictimservices.org, call 0300 323 0085 or email [email protected]. 

Blackpool domestic abuse survey
The Domestic Abuse Commissioner for England and Wales is currently looking to hear from victims and survivors of domestic abuse from the Blackpool area. If you have previously used or considered using a local domestic abuse service you can support the Commissioner’s work by completing the survey about your experience at https://survey.natcen.ac.uk/DASU.
