Somwhat Disappointed – No Enforcement @ FDC

FDC stated that there had been over 200 reported cases of ‘businesses’  allegedly carrying on – in contradiction of COVID-19 rules. Not one prosecution – I have received a small number of people who have contacted me in this respect and will in due course pass on their concerns back to FDC.
Here in Whittlesey there were several reports of ‘businesses’ carrying on despite  receiving letters informing them that they should not be doing so.

So now with ‘Local Authorities’ being given the task (enforcing) the latest Governments rules, we must wonder whether FDC have the capacity to monitor businesses.

The ten businesses still not allowed to reopen:

  • Nightclubs
  • Casinos
  • Bowling alleys and indoor skating rinks
  • Indoor play areas including soft-play
  • Spas
  • Nail bars and beauty salons
  • Massage, tattoo and piercing parlours
  • Gyms and dance studios
  • Swimming pools and water parks
  • Exhibition and conference centres

Yet Another Report – Scam-Scam & More Scams

The caller had a male and said their name was “Matthew”
He stated he was calling about the lagging in the loft.

When told there wasn’t a loft in the property the caller abruptly ended the call.
The suspect number is 01618 089840

If you use a website https://who-called.co.uk you can research any telephone number, and it may not surprise you that in this case there are hundreds of reports about the telephone number suggesting it is scam. One of the reports mentions Matthew and loft insulation. SCAM!

STOP – Take a moment to stop and think before you part with any money or your information could keep you safe
CHALLENGE – Could it be fake or false? It is ok to reject, refuse any requests. Only criminals will try and rush and panic you.
PROTECT – If you think you have just fallen for a scam contact your bank immediately and report to Action Fraud

For Those Desperate to Go Flying to Far Off Places

ONS – For Fenland (Whittlesey District)

Checking the Interactive map on The Cambs Times© this afternoon and they using the  data from The Office of National Statistics…. ONS Data @ Cambs Times

I and several are somewhat at odd’s with the results given. But then who am I to question the might ONS..

For example Coates, Benwick and Pondersbridge – 6  deaths from Corona Virus – I ask that reports (in the same date/data) that there were a substantial number more than 6 at a care Home in that area.

The same applies to to Whittlesey – where the ONS state that 4 deaths were due to Corona Virus – I do not have the figures but it is my understanding that there were more than 4

So it makes one wonder how acturate the ONS figures are – remebering that the Government use these figures to daily carry out risk assessment of the Virus….

Just makes me wonder…

Distractions – Scams & Low Life

News both in the Peterborough Telegraph™ & the Cambs Times™ and forever on here…
Almost daily dozens receive scam mail, much of it ‘looks’ genuine.
Distraction at the doorstep happening regularly.

It relates to an unexpected telephone call in which the caller stated their name was Jessica and they were calling on behalf of CLAIMS.NET Ltd (PPI related company).
The number displayed on the caller ID 02393880028

The caller was described as having a strong eastern European accent.

Not only did the scammer know the name of the person they were calling, but they had knowledge of a genuine PPI claim they had made. (It is not known how they obtained this information) The scammer asked for an email address so a PPI claim form could be sent to them, signed and then returned.

The suspect email address ended @yandex.ru

It was only after a series of emails and telephone calls that the intended victim thought to check the Financial Conduct Authority website which warns people of PPI related scams. They knew what to do when the scammers called again.

Always be alert to any unexpected communication. Text, telephone, email, instant message, mail.
Just because someone knows your name does not mean they are genuine.
We are up against organised criminal gangs from all of the world, with technical means to steal information and use it against us.
If in doubt, invite the caller to write to you, but don’t give them your address.

Criminals will play on your emotions, it is urgent, you need to act now, the police will arrest you, bailiffs will take property, you have to act now, prizes, money, wins.
Two types of telephone, the one when you recognise the callers voice and the other type in which you don’t recognise the voice, and if you don’t, then assume they could be absolutely anyone.

If in doubt, always contact the caller using a previously tried, tested and trusted means. Use a different phone if possible, to the one you took the suspicious call on.
Always check there is a genuine dial tone, criminals can use a recording of a dial tone to fool people when the line has actually been left open.

If necessary, unplug the phone from the socket for a few minutes, reconnect, check for dial tone.
If you have not already looked at www.haveibeenpwned.com then have a look and enter your email address in the search bar and see if criminals already have your email address.

STOP – Take a moment to stop and think before parting with money or information about yourself.
CHALLENGE – Could it be fake? It is ok to reject, refuse or ignore any request.
PROTECT – Contact your bank immediately if you think you have fallen for a scam. Then report to Action Fraud.
