Hi all,

I saw an ad recently on tv that RTE were doing a special on the latest phonecall scams that are targeting the workplace. We have had such problems here at work in recent months.

However, I cannot remember the name / channel / date of the show. :(
Can anyone please help?
 
If you ring the reception on RTE they will help you!
Have found them helpful in the past!
 
Perhaps .... 'Buyer Beware'?

Programme three had a story about businesses being scammed in the pretence of schools being helped with funds:

Thanks guys - it was only advertised last week but I have no doubt that there is a good chance I have missed it at this stage (Hamlet that I am)...
 
Hi Plek Trum!

This scam was covered on Crimeline Tuesday night.... Perhaps it was an excerpt of Crimecall that you saw?!
 
Was it a PBX scam? I had a call in work recently from a guy who wanted to speak to the "Telecoms Director" which there was none. He then asked me what type of phone system we used and other stuff like addresses to update some website. I didn't give any details and asked to call him back but he gave me a bogus number. Then I saw the Crimecall show the other night and figured this guy was probably trying to fish for info to carry out the same.
