Detective Inspector Rob King, head of the
Derbyshire Economic Crime Unit said: “We have been working alongside our
partners to raise awareness of frauds and scams as part of our forcewide Stamp
out Fraud campaign.
“Recently we have had an increase in reports of
suspected courier fraud, but thankfully there are steps that we can all take to
protect ourselves from the crime.
“This includes never giving out your card
details, PIN or bank card to anyone and ending any suspicious calls immediately
before reporting the incident.
“By spreading the message we can aim to stamp out
fraud and protect more people from falling victim to the crime.”
