Elderly woman targeted by fraud attempts.

This is how you can protect yourself

If you are unexpectedly contacted via phone call, SMS, or email, stop, don't act, hang up. Then ask someone you trust - a neighbor, a friend, a family member for advice.

Do not identify yourself with bank-ID or give out your codes when someone else contacts you.

Do not let an unknown person into your home. Serious companies, organizations, and authorities will never come to your home to collect your cash, jewelry, or other valuable items.

Don't be afraid to appear suspicious or unpleasant, dare to end the call.

If you are a victim of fraud, contact the police and if it's ongoing, call 112, otherwise call 114 14.
