Cyber criminals often see the vulnerable and elderly as easy targets for their offending, but this type of crime can happen to any of us at any time, and can leave victims feeling embarrassed and reluctant to report incidents to the police or even tell their family or friends.
The Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) Dr Alan Billings has made it a priority in his 3 year plan Police and Crime Plan – South Yorkshire Police and Crime Commissioner (southyorkshire-pcc.gov.uk)
to ‘protect vulnerable adults’ and ‘tackle crime’. He wants to be proactive with his office and other organisations in highlighting the dangers of scams to both the public and businesses.
