THE VALE of Glamorgan Council is warning residents about a suspected scam operating in the county.
Shared Regulatory Services (SRS), the body responsible for maintaining trading standards across the Vale, Cardiff and Bridgend local authority areas, has been made aware of an incident involving a suspicious call.
A resident in Llantwit Major was contacted by someone offering a ‘state of the art’ telecare package and put under pressure to reveal their bank details.
Fortunately, the resident ended the call after becoming suspicious and reported the matter meaning no lasting damage was done.
