Your Dorset, Your Police, Your View

Your Dorset. Your Police. Your View is your way to make your views heard on policing in Dorset. Each month during the campaign we will ask you to complete a survey on a different theme, we will then use these views to implement future changes to the way we police. This month’s theme focuses on preventative and proactive policing covering areas such as road safety and organised crime. It can be completed through this link http://svy.mk/1UYHWFo and should take no more than 5 minutes.

This is your chance to shape our future.

Dorset Police Alert – Scam phone calls

Residents in Dorset are receiving scam calls from 0204 and 0843 numbers.
from foreign sounding male and females.
Please try not to engage with these calls but place the phone back on the hook wait at least 10 minutes and call 101.

Dorset Police’s 101 non-emergency telephone service

More often than not, by calling the non-emergency 101 telephone service or 999 emergency service, it will be the first time many people in our community will speak with someone at Dorset Police. But there are occasions when we are, unfortunately, contacted for reasons which are not police matters. We’d very much like you to help us understand what you know about the 101 and 999 services.

Please click here to take part in a short survey, which is a valuable way for us to help our community get the best from these services.

There is an additional comments section in the survey for any other feedback, but please note, this survey cannot be used to address individual enquiries or to report crime. If there is a police matter about which you’d like an update, or if you need to report a crime, please call 101 for non-emergencies and always call 999 in the event of an emergency.

This survey is open until Sunday 20th September 2015.

RSPCA Equine Castration and Passport Clinic

Tuesday 6^th October 2015, 10.00am to 4pm

At Ashley Heath Car Boot site, Homelands Farm, Horton Road/Ringwood Road, Ashley Heath, Ringwood, BH21 6QZ

Castration
£80 for onsite castration – minimum age of horse 6 months (both testicles MUST have descended, whatever age the horse)
Including onsite pre and post op checks, discharge pack (with antibiotics and bute as required).
Also includes microchip and passport if the horse doesn’t have them.
Booking in advance is required, with £40 deposit to secure a place.

Why castrate your colt?
It is much easier to sell a gelding on the open market. Many people do not have the facilities or the experience to own a stallion, and will only consider buying geldings or mares. Geldings can therefore sell for much more money than colts.

Equine Passport/Worming/Microchip Package
Own a mare or gelding? You can still benefit from our action day! If your horse or pony doesn’t have a passport, bring it along and get it sorted.
£25 per horse for a passport, microchip, wormer and free vet advice. No booking needed, just turn up, but you must be ready to wait to be seen.

To book or enquire please call:
RSPCA Clinic
(10am-4pm)

Action Fraud – Parcel Mule Alert

People are being targeted to become “Parcel Mules” as part of a reshipping scam, which results in them handling stolen goods and losing out financially.

Victims are predominantly recruited through job advertisements and dating websites. They are persuaded to have items delivered to their addresses, and to pay for postage before sending the items elsewhere. Victims are contacted through Freelancer websites and invited to become a “Freight Forwarder” as an employment opportunity. The work is advertised as processing packages and forwarding them to clients.

The items being delivered have been purchased through fraudulent means, including the use of stolen/fraudulently obtained cards. The items being delivered are often pieces of electrical equipment or high value goods such as trainers, perfume and the latest phones.

If you act as a “mule” you are not only handling stolen goods, but also losing out financially. You will not get paid the promised salary and you pay for the postage and delivery of the packages personally. Additionally, you will have provided enough of your personal details to allow identity theft to occur.

How To Protect Yourself:

Do not agree to receive packages at your address for someone that you do not know and trust.
Be cautious of unsolicited job offers or opportunities to make easy money.
When accepting a job offer, verify the company details provided to you and check whether they have been registered in the UK.
Be wary of someone that you have met only online who asks you to send money or to receive items. Protect your privacy and do not give your personal details to someone that you do not know and trust.

If you, or anyone you know, have been affected by this fraud or any other scam, report it to Action Fraud by calling 0300 123 2040 or visiting www.actionfraud.police.uk.
