Ok I am on a local community commity which makes me privy to information before many others.


So I have been informed of the following.

A fraud company is calling mobile/cell phones telling people they are from an engineering company checking your connection.

They ask you to press as an example #89 or 98.

If you press these numbers when asked to this gives these fraudsters acccess to your SIM card and phone.

This then enables them to make calls from your mobile/cell phone SIM at your expence.

For those living in and around the Swansea area they can call the Crime Prevention Officer Phil Corris on 01524-596696 for more information.

Although this is happening all over the UK not just Swansea.

Thanks for the heads up JB

Your welcome Smokey.

People and members need to be made aware of these scammers.
