Motorists in Conwy County are being warned to be cautious when paying for parking, as fraudulent QR codes have been found on parking meters in Llandudno.

These fake codes lead to a website that steals payment details and can give fraudsters access to bank accounts and personal information.

The council advises using cash, card, phone, or the official PayByPhone app for payments. If you come across a suspicious QR code, report it to the council.

It is thought that scammers are taking advantage of the half term holidays and arrival of visitors in the forthcoming weeks.
