Community Safety Message: Be Vigilant Against Potential Fraudsters

We are aware of reports of individuals going door to door claiming to be government officials carrying out identity checks in advance of a census or other government initiative.

These individuals may:

✅ Claim to be from a government department.

✅ Produce official-looking identification, letters, or documents.

✅ State they need to verify your identity, take photographs, or collect fingerprints.

✅ Use laptops, biometric devices, or lists containing residents' names to appear legitimate.

Protect Yourself

Please treat any unsolicited request for personal information, photographs, fingerprints, identification documents, or financial details with caution.

If someone attends your address claiming to represent a government department:

🔹 Ask to see identification.

🔹 Do not provide personal information or documents unless you are satisfied they are genuine.

🔹 Do not allow unknown individuals into your home.

🔹 If you have any concerns, contact the organisation directly using publicly available contact details to verify their identity.
