Residents still falling victim to cyber crime, say Police

Manx residents are still falling victim to cyber crime.

That's according to authorities, who're reiterating a warning about a particular scam which appears to be targeting members of the public on Facebook.

The constabulary says it involves someone supposedly getting a message from a friend offering to sell Itunes or Amazon vouchers, however this means the friend's account has been hacked.

As a result, officers are again urging people to not interact with the message until you've spoken to your friend in person or over the phone, and if you think an account has been compromised to get passwords changed immediately.
