Fraudsters Continue to Impersonate Police Officers. "Do Not Give Anyone Your Card Details"

The Cyprus Police are warning the public about scams perpetrated by individuals impersonating police officers. The perpetrators contact citizens via video calls, pretending to be police officers and requesting personal information and bank account details. The Police emphasize that they never contact citizens in this manner and urge the public to be particularly careful and not disclose personal information or passwords. If anyone has fallen victim to a scam, they are urged to immediately inform their bank. The Police advise citizens to avoid responding to suspicious calls and report any suspicious activity.
