The police in Gibraltar have issued a warning about a new scam doing the rounds on the social media site Facebook, which urges people to solve an easy riddle and receive a cash prize. The Facebook message they quote says 'No word starts with S and ends in Y. Prove me wrong and get paid £1,500 - £5,700'.
"This is a scam," the police warned."Our advice is: Tell your friends and family, to help protect them, and share this post to let others know".
These types of posts are usually data-gathering exercises and in this case it is an attempt to access bank account details.
