FIRE CHIEFS are urging the public to name and shame malicious hoax callers from Gwent who are putting lives at risk and costing taxpayers more than £600,000 per year.
Making a hoax call is illegal.
If you recognise any of the people in these calls call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. Next time they make a hoax call they could be taking a fire engine away from a genuine emergency.
You can now hear examples of hoax callers and on this website as part of a zero tolerance campaign launched by South Wales Fire Service.
