Fw: Missing Boy Lowestoft - If you are around Lowestoft on my list....

Police are appealing for help in tracing a 12-year-old boy who went missing yesterday, Thursday 23 August.   Reece Bolton was last seen at Kensington Gardens in Lowestoft around 1.30pm yesterday, when he went off on his bike, and was reported as missing to police around 10.30pm last night.   Although he has gone missing before, police are concerned for his safety as he would have usually returned within a short space of time and his disappearance is out of character.   Reece is described as white, about 4ft 10ins tall, of medium build with short dark hair which has a swirly pattern cut into the back. He was riding a blue BMX with a Union Jack on it and it's likely that he is wearing tracksuit bottoms and a T-shirt and hooded top.   Police have been searching likely locations for Reece for the past 12 hours and have been making enquiries with family members however he has not been found.   Searches are continuing this morning and officers are now asking Reece or anyone who may have seen him since yesterday, or anyone with information about where he is now, to call the duty sergeant at Lowestoft Police Station on 101.       Please use the following link to pass useful information to Suffolk Police about any incident. http://http://www.suffolk.police.uk//safetyadvice/reportacrime/tellthepolice.aspx   DO NOT USE THIS LINK IN AN EMERGENCY OR IN A SITUATION THAT REQUIRES AN IMMEDIATE POLICE RESPONSE WHEN YOU SHOULD RING 999.   Police Direct Team       Police are calling for vigilance when making payments using online vouchers after a woman from Rougham was cheated out of money.   The woman used a 'U Kash' voucher to pay for a tent she purchased through a seller advertising on the 'Gumtree' website.   Despite the seller promising to arrange delivery through Parcel Force, the item did not arrive and Parcel Force had no record of the item.   It can be difficult to trace money once it has been used to pay for online vouchers, such as 'U Kash', making the system ideal for fraudsters.   Police are urging web users to use standard bank transfers instead and to research any online seller or site as thoroughly as possible.
