POLICE in North Ayrshire are encouraging residents to be alert should they receive unsolicited phone calls from callers claiming to be police officers or bank personnel.
Your bank or the police will never phone and ask you for your PIN or full banking password, ask you to withdraw money to hand over to them, ask you to transfer money out of your account or send someone to your home to collect cash, PINs and cards.
