Hopefully this is a useful place to put this.

www.met.police.uk/fraudalert/docs/mps_little_book_big_scams.pdf

This is a very nice booklet produced by the UK Metropolitan Police Force. It goes into a good amount of detail about common scams, how to avoid them and what to do if they come to you. It is well presented and very clear and I think it could be a good handout should anyone need it. Just thought I'd share Smile

Mods - please move if there's a better place for this. cheers.

A couple of UK-specific things it doesn't mention: Ukash (see http://www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=32769) and 44-70 numbers.
