PUBLIC NOTICE – SCAMMER ALERT

The Barbados Police Service is urging members of the public to remain vigilant as scammers continue to target individuals and businesses through fraudulent messages, phone calls, fake notices and online schemes.

It has been brought to our attention that persons are receiving communications falsely claiming to be from official agencies and requesting personal information, payments or account verification. These scams are designed to create panic and pressure individuals into acting without verifying the authenticity of the request.

The Barbados Police Service reminds the public that official government agencies and law enforcement departments will not request payments, banking details or sensitive personal information through suspicious links, unofficial websites, text messages or social media platforms.

Members of the public are encouraged to:
• Verify the identity of anyone requesting information or money
• Avoid clicking suspicious links or downloading unknown attachments
• Never share banking details, passwords or personal information with unverified persons
• Be cautious of messages creating urgency or threatening penalties
• Report suspicious activity immediately to the police

Scammers are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Stay alert, think before you act and help protect your family, friends and community from fraud.
