North Yorkshire Police are investigating frauds whereby persons are stating they are from a bank and are investigating a fraud, these persons will ask for your bank cards as part of the enquiry, asking you to place them in an envelope, later monies will be removed from these accounts. Residents are urged not to hand over any cards, banks do not operate in this fashion and will never ask for the card at your door, or ask for personal details over the phone without security questions being answered. Any such incidents should be reported immediately to North Yorkshire Police via the 101 system.
