Scam alert: Scammers claiming to be doctors
Please be aware of a scam currently happening in Sussex where patients are receiving calls from people claiming to be doctors.
We have been alerted to a scam operating in Sussex. Recently, a 93-year-old patient received a scam call to his home. The caller identified themselves as a doctor calling on behalf of the surgery and persuaded the patient to ‘buy’ a medical monitoring device or smart watch.
The patient handed over his bank details. The surgery only found out because the patient mentioned it at an appointment later that day.
If you suspect a scam incident, please report it to Action Fraud using their online reporting tool or by telephone: Reporting fraud and cyber crime | Action Fraud or 0300 123 20 40
