AGE CONCERN TELEPHONE SCAM 

A number of incidents have recently been reported in Alfreton Derbyshire where elderly persons have received a phone call from someone purporting to be from Age Concern. 

The caller, who has called himself John, tells people he is making benefit agency checks on behalf of Age Concern. He goes on to ask for personal information including, asking about what bank they use and for details of when they withdraw cash. He also asks where in the house this money is kept. 

Please note that Age Concern NEVER make calls of this nature – if this happens to you, you are likely to be speaking to someone totally unconnected with Age Concern. Do not pass any personal or financial details to anyone you are unsure of. 

Please pass this message on to anyone elderly that you know or display it in an appropriate place or newsletter.

KEEP TEENS SAFE ON "FACEBOOK" 

Nottinghamshire Police has been asked to help spread the word about an excellent new online facility designed to safeguard teenage Facebook users. 

The application, or app, has been created by CEOP - the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre - the UK's national police centre for protecting children. 

Click CEOP is simple to download and it’s FREE. Once installed it sits on the Facebook user’s profile. When clicked it provides immediate access to the very latest on internet safety, explaining how to tackle viruses, spot grooming and block hackers. 

**There’s also an option to report any approaches or activity that might be inappropriate.** 

The facility also helps reassure parents so any of you with teenage children or relatives who operate one of the 25 million active UK accounts on Facebook should also encourage them to use ClickCEOP. 

Adding the app’ is simple! 

1 Go to www.facebook.com/clickceop
2 Click the CLICK CEOP button on the left menu of the page
3 Follow the on-screen instructions. 

Once it has been installed it puts young people in CONTROL. They will always have help and advice available at the click of a mouse and should be enouraged to pass on the advice to their friends
