The Royal Gibraltar Police has received several reports from persons that have received e-mails that appear to be a Tax Rebate from Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs and requesting to ‘verify’ personal details in order to process their payment. This email directs victims to a web page via an included hyperlink. Following this link and entering personal details risks exposing personal details to fraudsters and having personal details sold on to other organised criminal groups.
Following an agreement with the Government of Gibraltar announced this week, the £45m, World Trade Center Gibraltar project is expected to break ground in the first half of 2014 and be ready for occupation by the end of 2015.
The Government says that the Opposition has “once again tried its hand at scaremongering and distorting of facts” by claiming that Social Services are down by eight members of staff, explaining that this is “simply not the case.” The Government says the Opposition would be more responsible in discharging its duties if, at the very least, it attempted to seek clarification from the relevant minister before “spreading misinformation.”
