●Your bank or the police will never send a courier to your home to collect bank cards, cash, or other valuables such as jewellery. ● Contact the organisation directly using contact details you know are correct, such as those on offi cial websites, the back of your card or by calling 159 for your bank. ●Do NOT trust the Caller ID display on your phone – it’s not proof of ID. ● You can report suspected scam calls by sending a text to 7726 with the word ‘Call’ followed by the caller’s number.

If YOU think you have been a victim of fraud, contact Report Fraud on 0300 123 2040. LDERLY people are being especially targeted by a scam known as courier fraud. It can start with a phone call from someone claiming to be a police offi cer or from the person’s bank. In the former, the caller may tell them they are at risk of fraud, then ask them to help catch those responsible.

T ere have even been examples where the criminals have turned up at people’s homes with fake warrant cards. T eir aim is to try and get their victims to trust them enough that they agree to withdraw money, make purchases or write down sensitive information. T e courier element comes in when someone arrives to collect the money or item, only to never be seen again. One example involved a person persuaded to stay on the phone while they went to London’s Hatton Garden – famous for its jewellers – where they bought a Rolex watch.

Figures from Report Fraud show reports of courier fraud increased nearly 10 per cent year-on-year, rising from 1721 in 2024 to 1891 in 2025. Over the same period, total losses climbed from £19.5million to more than £21million. A key feature is the disproportionate targeting of older people, particularly those aged 70 and above. Another emerged last week when Santander raised the alarm about a Father’s Day scam ahead of Sunday. In this case a “Hi Dad” impersonation scam, where fraudsters use WhatsApp, text or an AI-generated phone call, pretending to be their child requesting money or to make a payment.

Chris Ainsley, head of fraud risk management at Santander UK, said: “As a parent, I know how busy life gets and fraudsters often target people who they know they might not have time to properly consider what they’re being asked to do.” Big events are another source for fraudsters. Examples range from the World Cup to concert tickets.

POLICE wanted to ask Nicola Sturgeon more questions about her estranged husband’s £400,000 fraud spree. As Peter Murrell was jailed yesterday for five years and three months, the former FM’s lawyer Aamer Anwar called the claims “disgraceful and beyond outrageous”.
