I am sure everyone has had these callers at home or at the office. However, this type of call must beat all the others put together and I would just like to warn Ware on Liners to be on their guard about this scam, as it concerns all of us in our community. Early this week at the office, I took a call from a guy purporting to be from the Fire Brigade. He was telling me how good our company was to them last year in sponsoring their new brochure and would we be willing to renew our help this year, promptly adding he would take a credit card number over the telephone. I said the Manager would have to see the entry black on white and please could he email or fax me the entry. This never arrived. Another guy from the same source spoke to a colleague of mine who put him through to me. I reiterated my request for written proof but - again - nothing arrived. I called Police and Fire Brigade who confirmed it was a scam and to be vigilent. They are on the case.
