North Wales Police have been made aware of fraudsters targeting residents, pretending to be from their local pharmacy or chemist.
The criminals say they are calling to confirm a repeat prescription or delivery of medication.
The victim is then asked to provide their bank details.
A police spokesperson said: "I would urge residents to be aware of this tactic and not provide personal details or bank details to anyone over the telephone. If you receive such a call, please hang up and report to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040.
"If you are concerned about your medication, please contact your pharmacy using a phone number you know and trust."
