3. Community Priorities The Neighbourhood Policing Team meet regularly with partners to ensure we have a multi-agency approach to local issues, individuals and problem solving. These meetings are regularly attended by partners including Fire and Rescue Service, Youth and Family Support, Housing Officers, Environmental Health and the East Riding Anti-Social Behaviour Team. We share information and resources to deal with local neighbourhood issues, in particular, those identified as causing the most harm in the community. High Visibility Patrols We have been patrolling Snaith and surrounding rural areas during our shifts. We are aware that there are many vulnerable people that live within the community and we want to reassure them that we are still here for you. You have probably seen us posting on Social Media on a daily basis. This is so those that are self isolating also know that we are about. We are conscious that most people will not see us due to Government restrictions so hope this provided some comfort in these worrying times.

4. Crime Reduction Advice Safeguard yourself against scams during the coronavirus outbreak

Unfortunately not everyone is trustworthy and some people will try to take advantage of this unusual situation our society is facing and try to exploit people.

Listed below are some of the scams that you could be approached with, but please note that criminals and their scams come in all shapes and sizes, and they may contact you at the door, by phone, post or online:

NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED

Parish/Town News Release

NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED  Be aware of people offering miracle cures or vaccines for coronavirus – there is no specific treatment for coronavirus (COVID-19)

 People impersonating healthcare workers, claiming to be offering ‘home-testing’ for coronavirus – this is a scam and these kits are not currently available to buy

 Emails saying that you can get a refund on taxes, utilities or similar - they are usually bogus and they are just trying to obtain your bank and personal details.

 Fake products available to buy online that advise they can protect you or cure coronavirus - these will not help and are just designed to take your money.

 Mobile phone applications that claim to give you updates on the virus but instead, they lock your phone and demand a ransom.

 Calls from people purporting to be from your bank, or from the police, asking for your bank details over the phone

 People offering to do your shopping or collecting medication and asking for money upfront and then disappearing.

To avoid becoming a victim of a scam, please follow our tips and advice below:

 Be cautious and listen to your instincts. Don’t be afraid to hang up, bin it, delete it or shut the door.

 Take your time; don’t be rushed.

 If someone claims to represent a charity, ask them for ID. Be suspicious of requests for money up front. Check with family and friends before accepting offers of helps if you are unsure.

 If you are online, be aware of fake news and use trusted sources such as .gov.uk or NHS.uk websites. Make sure you type the addresses in and don’t click on links in emails.

 Only purchase goods from legitimate retailers and take a moment to think before parting with money or personal information.

 Know who you’re dealing with - if you need help, talk to someone you know or get in touch with your local Council.

 Protect your financial information, especially from people you don’t know. Never give your bank card or PIN to a stranger

We know it can be difficult to know who to trust, and we hope this information helps you to feel more informed and more able to protect yourself against these types of scams. If you are online or have a mobile phone Facebook Community groups and WhatsApp groups can be great ways of staying in touch with those around you.

5. News and Appeals
