SSAA Para Branch Important News/Information

Membership Renewal Scam

Tuesday, 17 January 2012 21:36

Alert to SSAA members

We have received a phone call from a member advising they had received a phone call from a Male claiming he was from the Sporting Shooters Membership Office and that his renewal was due. He then offered to take the payment by credit card over the phone.

Our member was suspicious so rang us direct to check.

Please be aware that we at National Membership do not cold call.

If you receive one of these calls, or believe you have been affected, we suggest you hang up and call the SSAA National
office on 08 8272 7100.
