Throughout December 2020, the National Trading Standards Friends Against Scams Team are running a Scamnesty (a scam mail amnesty) campaign, aiming to encourage everyone in the UK to send in any unwanted scam and nuisance mail that they receive into the National Trading Standards (NTS) Scams Team completely free of charge.
In line with Government guidance, they ask that you do not make a trip outside just to post the mail, but please include it in any daily exercise that you may do, or simply wait until Government restrictions have been eased, and then send into the Team then.
If you, or someone you know is in receipt of scam or nuisance mail, the NTS Scams Teams Investigators want to see it! They already use the mail that they receive from Scam Marshals to great effect through their disruption techniques, but the Team would like to see more and put a stop to these mailings landing on consumers' door steps. The NTS Scams Team estimate that only 5% of these crimes are reported. This can be due to a number of reasons like shame or embarrassment, or even that they don't know who to report them to. Victims of these crimes shouldn't feel ashamed at all, these criminals are experts at what they do and know exactly how to commit their fraud.
Send mail (no need for a stamp) to: NTSST, FREEPOST, MAIL MARSHALS
Scamnesty is designed to encourage everyone in the UK to have a chat with their loved ones about scams and to send in any scam or unwanted mail into the team free of charge. Your support with Scamnesty is key to making this project a success. Postal scams are largely forgotten about, and thus so are the victims of them. The Team needs large social media reach to get the message to the children, grandchildren or even great grandchildren of those forgotten victims so they can then have that conversation. Any support you can provide is greatly appreciated – we understand December is a very busy month for us all!

Neighbourhood Watch are working with University College London to understand how COVID-19 has impacted upon people's routine and online activities, crime and their perceptions of it.
To help with this work, they are encouraging our supporters to participate in a short survey (surveymonkey.co.uk/r/9LGPHDL) which closes on 23rd December.
As well as understanding how the pandemic has affected things to date, the aim of the survey is to understand how it might do so in the future. Your participation will be really valuable and help Neighbourhood Watch to understand things that other data cannot.
It will take about 15-20 minutes to complete. Your responses will be stored securely and you will not be asked for any information that would identify you as an individual.
If you are willing to take part, please complete this survey: www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/9LGPHDL
