What To Do If You Get Scammed
------------------------------------------------------------------------
GET HELP AND REPORT A SCAM
If you think you have uncovered a scam, have been targeted by a scam or
fallen victim, there are many authorities you can contact for advice or
to make a report.
Reporting crime, including fraud, is important. If you don’t tell the
authorities, how do they know it has happened and how can they do
anything about it? Remember that if you are a victim of a scam or an
attemted scam, however minor, there may be hundreds of thousands of
others in a similar position. Your information may form part of one big
jigsaw and may be vital to completing the picture.
REPORTING FRAUD
In the South Yorkshire Police area as of April 2013, all fraud should be
reported directly to Action Fraud.
