Police investigating reports of motor vehicle scam

The Jamaica Constabulary Force, (JCF) is investigating reports of a fraudulent scheme targeting individuals who have sold or are planning to sell their motor vehicles.

Criminals are reportedly contacting vehicle sellers via telephone, pretending to be Police Officers and claiming that the vehicles they are planning to sell or have sold are stolen properties.

The JCF says under the pretense of helping the sellers avoid prosecution or reimbursing the supposed buyer, these scammers demand immediate cash payments from the sellers.

The Police say the scammers then enlist unsuspecting ride-share drivers to collect cash from victims and transport the funds to various drop-off locations.

The JCF is urging citizens to remain vigilant.

It says under no circumstance should money be paid to individuals making such demands over the phone.

Persons are also being reminded that that no legitimate police operation involves soliciting or collecting money from citizens to settle criminal matters or reimburse third parties.

The Police say if persons receive a call of this nature, they should hang up immediately and report the incident to the nearest police station or crime stop at 311.

Ride-share drivers are also being urged to be cautious of requests to transport unaccompanied packages, especially those suspected of containing cash, as transporting the proceeds of crime may implicate them in criminal activities.

Superintendent of Police Victor Barrett of the Counter-Terrorism and Organized Crime Investigations Branch (C-TOC) says the police are actively probing the incidents and urging the public to report them.

Such incidents can be reported by calling C-TOC at 876-967-1389, the police 119 emergency number or the nearest police station.
