Shut Out Scammers Event – Edinburgh

Staff from Neighbourhood Watch Scotland were in Edinburgh on Tuesday 20 May as part of the nationwide Shut Out Scammers Campaign where they joined officers from Police Scotland Edinburgh, outside the National Galleries of Scotland building at The Mound.

 

The weather was glorious and we spoke with a number of people from Edinburgh and many tourists from overseas too.

 

Lots of members of the public were interested to hear all about Neighbourhood Watch Scotland and the Neighbourhood Alert information system and our police colleagues were able to provide information and advice on how to stay safe and avoid doorstep, online and telephone scams.
