From RCIPS

Police have received a number of reports from persons who have received a telephone call from an overseas phone number where the caller has attempted to gain banking details or persuade the customer to transfer monies from their account. 

The RCIPS is informing the public that any such call could potentially be a scam, and the public should be vigilant when speaking with persons over the phone. Remember that banking and other financial institutions would not ask for sensitive information over the phone or in emails. If you are suspicious of the call or email you’ve received contact your financial institution yourself using their official communication channel and speak with a representative to verify the call. Do not give personal and banking details over a phone call or email.

 
Anyone who believes they may have received one of these fraudulent phone calls or emails is encouraged to report the incident to their financial institution. Anyone with information about these phone calls or emails is encouraged to submit a tip via the RCIPS website at www.rcips.ky.
