The fraudsters are aware of the timing of the BPS, as much of the information on who receives payments is publicly available. From this criminals are able to target specific individuals. Members should look out for fraudsters calling or emailing claiming to represent the Rural Payments Agency, their bank or the police. The victim is usually convinced to hand over bank account details Remember… • It takes two people to terminate a call • Be wary of unsolicited approaches by phone • If you feel something is suspicious or feel vulnerable, hang up, wait five minutes to clear the line, or where possible use a different phone line, then call your bank or card issuer on their advertised number to report the fraud • If you don’t have another telephone to use, call someone you know first to make sure the telephone line is free • Your bank will also never ask you to check the number showing on your telephone display matches their registered telephone number. The display cannot be trusted, as the number showing can be altered by the caller • Criminals may already have basic information about you in their possession (e.g. name, address, account details), so do not assume a caller is genuine because they have these details or because they claim to represent a legitimate organisation Any farmer who is concerned or suspicious should contact their bank in the first instance Reporting a Scam • For advice on scams call - Citizens Advice Consumer Helpline: 03454040506 • To report a scam call - Action Fraud: 0300 123 2040 If you are concerned about somebody you care about or for more information on scams visit www.iwasp.org.uk 3 PayPal Scam & Action Fraud Phishing Email.
