Incident Report Description

The following email has been going around. Please note that it is a hoax. There is a syndicate of criminals presenting themselves as sales promoters who are giving free key-rings / holders at petrol stations or parking lots. Those key-rings / holders have a tracking device chip which allows them to follow you. Please don’t accept them.

They select their seemingly well-to-do potential victims and if you accept then you will be in for their tricks. The key-holders are very beautiful to resist accepting but remember you may end up paying more than the key holder including the risk to your life.

Please advice your family members.
