I've met with the Take Five campaign team today, to learn about how they're helping people avoid scams:
Stop - take a moment to think about what you're being asked to do
Challenge - could it be fake? Criminals often try to panic and rush you
Protect - if you think you've been the victim of a scam call your bank immediately
