Action Fraud and WhatsApp have warned people to be on the lookout for a ‘child in need’ scam operating in the UK that has recently resulted in parents being conned out of £50,000. The con involves scammers targeting parents via WhatsApp, claiming to be one of their children and using different excuses to ask for a transfer of money e.g., the need to pay a big bill and being frozen out of their banking app, or similar.
