Tandridge Neighbourhood Watch Newsletter Bulletin 3 January 17th – January 28th 2019 Dear Neighbourhood Watch Members Over the past few weeks in the Tandridge Area there have been a number of attempted telephone scams. Please ensure your friends family and neighbours who may not be on Facebook are aware. Persons are purporting to be from the bank, or a police station, stating that there has been fraud on the account or people are in custody for fraud. They are requesting card details or cash withdrawals which will then be collected and verified. They have often been using the name DC Morris but may use any name. The police and bank will not contact you asking for this information. Please make sure this message is spread widely and let's stop these criminals targeting the most vulnerable and trusting members of our community Dan Gutierrez Tandridge Safer Neighbourhood Inspector If your area is not referred to below it is because we have not been informed of the crime or it has not been affected by reported crime in the categories below. Feedback from you will help to achieve the most appropriate circulation of information. ** PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO STAFF HOLIDAYS BULLETIN 4 WILL BE LESS COMPREHENSIVE THAN USUAL.
