Police are urging people to be on their guard against scam callers after being the target of one themselves.
Yesterday someone called Police Headquarters claiming to be 'technical support' from a well-known software company.
The caller claims computers are infected or malfunctioning and that they're offering remote support - they then ask for bank details for payment.
Officers say the calls appear plausible but are warning people not to give out their details - they say their caller hung up when they were told they'd actually phoned the police.
