You Can’t Win It – So Bin It!

02/02/11
February is ‘Scamnesty’ Month

Throughout February, Warwickshire consumers are being urged to ‘bin a scam’ in support of ‘Scamnesty’, the national month long scams awareness campaign, Warwickshire Trading Standards Service has announced.

‘Scamnesty bins’, located at main libraries and one stop shops across Warwickshire will be available throughout the month for residents to bin their bogus prize draws and sweepstakes, scam lotteries and advanced fee fraud letters. Trading Standards Officers will then collect the bins, identify issues and then shred them!

For more information about Scamnesty, including scam bin locations and further details on mass marketing scams, please visit our website www.warwickshire.gov.uk/scamnesty
