Scammers increasingly use text messages to target victims.

• Be suspicious of messages claiming account problems or missed deliveries
• Never click links in unexpected texts
• Contact the organisation directly if you're unsure

A text message can be just as dangerous as a scam email.

Sharing your location can reveal more than you realise.

• Avoid posting your location in real time
• Review app permissions regularly
• Turn off location sharing when it isn't needed

Think carefully before sharing where you are.

Not every friend request is genuine, even if it appears to come from someone you know.

Scammers often create duplicate accounts using the names and photos of real people to gain access to your personal information or target your friends.

• Be cautious if you receive a friend request from someone who is already on your friends list
• Contact the person through their existing account or another method to confirm the request is genuine
• Check the profile for warning signs, such as very few friends, little activity, or recently created content

If you're unsure, don't accept the request until you've verified it's really them.

Maroochydore Police are reminding the community, particularly those living in unit complexes, to be mindful of opportunistic property crime.

Here are some easy actions you can take to keep your belongings safe:

🔒 Ensure any communal doors are closed.

🚪 Make sure you keep doors and windows (including balcony screens) locked.

💰 Avoid storing valuables in communal garage/lockup areas.

🚲 If you have a bike or scooter, secure them to something solid or, if possible, keep them in an area only you can access.

🚗 Keep your car locked with windows closed, and don’t leave valuables in clear view.

🤳 Report any suspicious behaviour around the building directly to police.
