quiregrrlThis world has sure got some suckage to it...
This email came through this morning from the person in charge of Aged services in City of Sydney Council, to be distributed to community health staff since we deal with lots of old folk, and pensioners in general.
We have had some reports that there may be younger criminals planning to target pensioners at ATMs in the week of the 8th-11th December due to upcoming pension bonus payments.
Could everyone please make all older folk aware of this plus the following points-
Make small withdrawals (so if money is lost it is minimised)
Bring a friend or relative when making an ATM withdrawal
Be mindful of unwanted presence near ATM and protect PIN
If a crime does occur please report this to local police.
Tell your nannas.
