inp.polri.go.id - Manado. The Head of Public Relations of the North Sulawesi Regional Police, Pol. Grand Commissioner Jules Abraham Abast appealed to the public to be careful of fraudulent modes on behalf of someone or an official who asked for a sum of money.

  "This is rife, especially when these irresponsible people know that there is a change of officials in an agency. Potential victims will be contacted via telephone or short message, using the names of officials," said the Head of Public Relations of the North Sumatra Regional Police, Friday (11/12/21).

  Therefore, the Head of Public Relations of the North Sulawesi Regional Police, Pol. Grand Commissioner Jules Abraham Abast asked the public not to believe the actions carried out by these elements efficiently.

  There is currently a transfer of officials in the National Police itself, including the North Sulawesi Regional Police and the ranks. Usually, some people take advantage of this moment to take the names of National Police officials and ask the public for some money for various reasons.

  "If this happens, then we ask the public not to believe it immediately but to confirm it first, do not be easily tricked or persuaded," closed the Head of Public Relations of the North Sulawesi Regional Police.
