A quick-thinking worker at a Paisley Post Office stepped in to stop an elderly customer handing over thousands of pounds to crooks who had conned her into sending them cash
.
Kind Najma asked her what was wrong and was told that she was about to post £3,000 to her “bank” who had allegedly told her there was “unusual activity on her account” and that she should send them the cash so that they could “deposit it into a new account” for her. “The customer hesitated and told her it was money at the sum of £3,000. She had managed to successfully withdraw this amount from her bank earlier.
Staff at the Premier say that they are seeing multiple attempted scams. The store spokesperson added: “Could we please stress the importance of letting elderly/loved ones know about this on a regular basis, as this is sadly becoming more common.”
