22.01.2022 Ryde PAC urge the community to protect their deliveries Over the last few weeks, there have been several stealing’s of parcels that have been delivered to unit complexes within Meadowbank, Ryde and Macquarie Park. With online shopping thriving due to current Covid-19 situation and with early Christmas shopping as well, there has been a surge in people receiving their shopping wishes by both Post and Couriers. Unfortunately, thieves are intercepting the end customer by stealin...g items left unattended in unit foyers and concierges. Therefore, make sure you are aware when your delivery is expected, and keep track of your order. Do not leave deliveries unattended and consider having the parcels delivered to the Post Office for collection. Also liaise with your strata to see what other security measures that can be taken to reduce the risk of parcel theft, such as building access etc. So, don’t leave your personal items unattended and let a thief spoil your day. Protect your deliveries and keep an eye out for thieves. If you see any suspicious behaviour, make sure you contact your local police.

07.01.2022 SCAM ALERT! We’ve had several reports of scammers calling people from what appear to be trusted NSW Police Force numbers and threatening the call recipients with fines or arrest. These scammers are using technology to make it appear that the calls originate from legitimate police phone numbers; a practice known as ID spoofing. The caller impersonates a NSW Police Force officer and states that the person receiving the call has an outstanding fine or warrant. The scammer demand...s a form of payment to prevent arrest or further court action. The NSW Police Force will never call a member of the public and demand payment over the phone in order to avoid going to court or being arrested. If you get an unexpected call from someone who states they're from the police, and starts asking for personal details or threatens you, please hang up. If you’re concerned, you can always verify by contacting your local police or the Police Assistance Line directly on 131 444. To find out more information about scams, or to find out other ways to protect yourself, visit www.scamwatch.gov.au. If you have been the victim of a scam, you can report it to local police or to the ACCC online at the ‘SCAMwatch report a scam’ page.
