Beware imposter ‘CAB’ cold callers offering debt help, CAB warns
Imposters claiming to be from the CAB are preying on people with money worries with cold calls offering fake ‘debt help’ Kingston Citizens Advice Bureau warned this week.

CAB chiefs said no genuine Citizens Advice Bureau would ever call people out of the blue offering to set up a debt management plan. They urged anyone receiving such a call or text to alert Action Fraud immediately on 0300 123 2040, or online at http://www.actionfraud.org.uk/report_fraud
They also urged anyone in financial difficulties to contact the bureau for free, confidential, independent and expert advice to help resolve debt problems.
