Police said that it is once again receiving reports of calls that are allegedly being made via ‘local numbers’ claiming to be from the Malta Police.

This is the second time this month that the Police have had to issue a warning over this type of scam calls.

These calls are asking for the person to give their ID information, postcode and/or card details.

Police said that the message is normally pre-recorded which then directs the person receiving the call to follow the additional instructions.

The Police warned that these are none other than scams, whereby criminals try to gain access to personal information and/or credit card details.
