A woman calls the police - she has received a text message that a company is going to change her lock.

The woman has not ordered a lock replacement and therefore suspects that it may be a case of fraud.

Lock replacement a common method for fraud
Police have today and in recent days received several calls about fraud or attempted fraud.

In an SMS, you are urged to click on a link to contact the lock company. When you click on the link, a scammer calls and says that they are connected to "the police." But they are not connected to the police.

**This is what you should do:
**- Do not click on any links.
- If you call a person you suspect is a scammer - hang up the phone.
- If you want to contact the police - call 112.
- Do not leave out gold, valuable items or credit cards to unknown people, even if they claim to be "police".

If you suspect that you have been a victim of fraud or attempted fraud, contact the police on 112.
