Advantage backs police holiday fraud crackdown
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) is mobilising a crackdown on holiday fraud during peaks.
A week of action by the force’s economic crime unit is running until February 5, with a warning of arrests and action.
Six victims of holiday fraud were reported in the Greater Manchester area last week, with the average loss of £650.
The GMP unit is working with City of London Police “to proactively disrupt and prosecute any offenders of holiday fraud”.
The Advantage Travel Partnership is backing the campaign.
