The Metropolitan Police Department goes digital
Tewatasanainu, the uniformed spokes-dog of "Digi Police," may be a cute character, but she's not an anime creature from a game app. She is actually the mascot of the Metropolitan Police Department's new crime-prevention app aimed at informing users of phone scams and fraud.
"Digi Police" offers information on how scams work, the option to send fraud explanations to friends, a personal alarm, a police station search function, access to the official police Twitter feed and, perhaps the most useful function of the lot, it gives details of current investigations as well as who to contact if you become a victim of one.
