The suspect will call a hotel switchboard and state they are calling from the hotel office as part of a quality call back scheme.
They will ask to get put through to a room that has received room service. Once through they tell the guests that they are from room service and their recent order failed to be processed for payment. In order to process the order they will require the credit card details again. The suspect will then record all the credit card details and use these fraudulently for financial gain.

Have you ever wanted to ask your local police commander what their plans are for the forthcoming year? Or what they most enjoy about their role? Perhaps you just would like to know what their favourite music is!!
Next Tuesday, 17 April you will be able to do just that when each of Sussex Police's 13 District Commanders (or equivalents) takes part in a day of live webchats as part of our commitment to become more open and transparent.

Ewatch/bulletins should be provided from the PCSO and a minimum of crime information.
