COMMUNITY ALERT SCAM ALERT: Anti fraud gardai are advising people to make sure their smart phone access code is different to their online banking codes after it was found that criminals were watching people while they opened their phone, memorised the code, stole the phone and then accessed their bank accounts. Criminals are now focussing more on investment frauds as people are becoming less likely to fall for text or email scams or to click on links. More than €10 million has been scammed from Irish people in online and investment frauds in the first five months of 2023. Investment scams are where criminals create fake websites for investment products or clone real ones and lure potential investors largely through pop up ads online and social media. Once a person makes contact they will be called by a fake ‘broker’ who lures the victim into either transferring funds directly, or downloading software onto their computer which can be used to drain bank a/cs. Between January 1 2020 and May 31, 2023 €43.6 million was reported as stolen from victims’ bank accounts in different types of frauds. Another few scams. If you get a call from someone you don’t know and they say “Can you hear me” do not reply “Yes” Say “I can hear you”. It seems they can use a recording of your “Yes” to sign you up for all kinds of stuff. If you get a text mar ya from one of your children that reads like this; “Hi Mam, my phone is broken, this is my new mobile number. You can save this number and delete my old one” – Ignore and Delete. Be careful about calls from Amazon Prime, if you signed up for a free month’s trial, at the end of it the scammers could ring you up and ask you if you want to sign up or cancel. If you decide you want to sign up and it’s a scammer you’re dealing with they’ll be able to get your credit card details. Ignore text messages about you supposedly passing through the tunnel and not paying. If you don’t recognise the number don’t answer the phone, let them leave a message and then ring them back if you feel you need to. Keep your doors locked so that if you answer someone at the front door there is no danger of an accomplice coming in the back door while your attention is diverted. Banks never ask you to click onto a link – it’s either a y or a n that they require. That’s how the scammers work- put on the pressure and someone will surely fall for it. FAST is the checklist for a stroke. Face – Check to see if one side of the face droops, Arms – Raise both arms, see if one drops down. Speech- check for slurring. Time – if the answer to these is yes call 112/999 immediately. Five ways to Wellbeing: Connect, Be Active, Take Notice, Keep Learning. Give. www. mentalhealth Ireland.ie . Ask your relatives and neighbours for help if you need it. Keep their phone numbers on a list beside your phone. Learn your Eircode – if you have to call for help it will take the services straight to your door. Write ICE before your next of kin’s number in your phone so if you cannot communicate the services will be able to contact your next of kin. If you suffer from a gambling addiction there is a counsellor/psychotherapist available at the Listowel Family Resource Centre. Further information from 068 23584. If you are 65, you live alone or with a person/s aged over 65 you are entitled to receive a monitored alarm system. But if you have younger people living in the house who are out or if you spend long periods of the day on your own then, because you are spending hours alone you are also entitled to the system provided that you are over 65. The free equipment is provided by Pobal following an application from Abbeyfeale Community Alert, there will be a monitoring fee to be paid from the second year of installation to the installing company of €72. There may be some confusion over the word free – the equipment which costs in the region of €400 is provided free of charge by Pobal as is the first year of monitoring but after that you will be charged by the installing company for the monitoring. I have not included the phone numbers of the committee in this notice but if you want to get a panic button then ring Abbeyfeale Garda Station on 068 30010 and they will contact one of us. Should you not have a landline the installing company Task provide a sim card at a rate of €7.50 per month payable from day one with a deposit of 6 months payable on the day of installation. Then, in year two you will also receive a bill for the monitoring fee so in year one the bill will be €90 and in year two and every other year after it will €162 approx. If you wish, you can arrange a direct debit and pay this amount off monthly. Committee members are Michael O’Kelly N.T., Chairman Seamus Stack, Secretary Mossie Gleeson, Assistant Treasurer Kathleen Collins, Assistant Secretary Mary McArthur, John O’Sullivan, Billy Quirke N.T., Cllr. Francis Foley, Catherine Daly, Maurice O’Connell, Assistant Treasurer Marian Harnett.
