Reports came in about an 80-year-old woman who on Monday received a call from someone claiming to be from a credit company, and talked about ordering mobile phones. The woman was then connected to what was said to be a bank's security department, and was tricked into using her bank ID. She subsequently lost money.

The police were dispatched to the scene and a report of fraud was filed.

The police want to remind everyone that they should never give out codes or other sensitive information to unknown individuals, and that they should not transfer money on behalf of unknown individuals.
