Lugli with some tips on how to avoid becoming a scam victim.

 

City Police received a call from a concerned senior citizen on Thursday about an email she had received, saying she owed money to PayPal.

The woman has no PayPal account and she was lucky to not fall for the scam.

Police say you should never take immediate action when you get an email or phone call regarding payments owing, instead Always take the time to verify that what you are being told is in fact the truth.
