Caller: Saying that they were from NSW police service I couldn't understand too much as he was talking 100 miles an hour. But he wanted to talk to someone in charge of our particular club that I go to. I told him that I was a section of club but he wanted someone in charge of the club. Because I wasn't he hang up

I work as a Police Officer in WA, I have received multiple complaints relating to this number in the past month. Please do not give out your personal details. If the person on the other end claims to be a police officer or spokesperson for police, request their badge or police ID number. If they claim to be a part of a neighbourhood watch program, please request the name of their police liaison officer or local area command/station.
In all circumstances report your interaction on https://www.scamwatch.gov.au/

Caller: Hamish Pretended to be from the Police and Neighborhood Watch. Clearly had no idea who they expected to pick up as they asked if it was the business rather than a certain individual. Recommend blocking the number.
