Advice NI are pleased to join the Scamwise NI partnership

Increased awareness of scams is the first step to helping people, which is why Scamwise NI has developed the Scam Test:

• Seems too good to be true
• Contacted out of the blue
• Asked for personal details
• Money requested

The most common scams at the moment are email, internet, phone or doorstep fraud with the perpetrators claiming to represent large organisations such as banks, insurance companies, TV licensing or even those who claim they can get people larger Universal Credit payments.
Remember, to spot a scam is to stop a scam. If you have discovered something you think may be a scam then you should report it to the police or Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040
