New Zealand Police are advising the public to be vigilant, after a handful of reports have been made in recent days. Unfortunately, at least two elderly Aucklanders have been conned out of tens of thousands of dollars.
WaitematΔ CIBβs Detective Senior Sergeant Ryan Bunting says scammers are cold calling, mainly on landlines, and claim to be a Police officer.βThey will also provide a fake ID or badge number to make their call seem legitimate,β he says.βThis person will carry on and provide a reason for their call: either they are investigating fake bank notes, or that your credit card has been cloned.
βAs part of this scam, they will ask you to withdraw money from a nearby bank to be collected or ask you to provide further financial or banking information to aid their investigation.β
Be aware: this is a scam call.
Police are investigating two reports this week, in south Auckland and the North Shore, where two people have fallen victim to the scam. βBoth victims withdrew cash from a bank and handed this over to someone who arrived at their door to collect it under the fake cover story,β Detective Senior Sergeant Bunting says.βThese victims have had their good-will and trust trodden on by these scammers.β
Investigation staff have ensured there is support available for the victims. Detective Senior Sergeant Bunting says: βScammers have no ethics whatsoever and will take any opportunity to try and con you.βThese scams take many forms, and the offenders trick people under a variety of guises or storylines.β
There are occasions where legitimate Police officers will contact people as part of their duties, he says.
Police are asking the community to be aware and take the opportunity to spread the word amongst friends and family members. βWe are particularly keen to ensure elder family members are aware of what is happening,β Detective Senior Sergeant Bunting says. βIf anyone receives a call of this nature, hang up.
βIf you have had the unfortunate position of being a victim to this scam and have not reported this, we encourage you to report this to Police.β
Please remember:
- Police will never call to ask you for bank details, pin numbers or passwords
- Police do not offer prize money
- Police will not ask you to go to a bank to withdraw money
- If you receive a call out of the blue of a similar nature: challenge the caller to identify themselves, ask for their details.
- Hang up, contact 105 to verify the ID and request the officer to contact you
- If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
