Telephone Compliance interview

Nicolette

It is possible that you have been selected at random but it is also possible that something has been flagged or you could have been reported to the Fraud line!

Has anything changed recently? Have you started receiving a pension or some orther regular payment? Have your circumstances changed? Has someone started living with you?

You can contact the DWP for more information, there should be a contact number on the letter?

Hi Nicolette

You are right it could be a scam

If you are suspicious:

1) do not give out any personal information, or confirm that any personal information they have is correct
2) do not pay them any money
3) do not pay them using electronic vouchers

Report any suspicions of fraud

Please report your suspicions or incidents to Action Fraud, either on the Action Fraud website or (only if you are in the UK) by phoning 0300 123 2040 ......... www.actionfraud.police.uk

Action Fraud provides a fraud-reporting and advice centre, where people and small businesses can report fraud, attempted fraud and scam emails.

Your reports will then be passed on to the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau and analysed to see if they can be used as part of a police investigation.

You can help to stop scammers by warning your friends and family, and by making Action Fraud aware of any scams that you have encountered.
