This is a mascot invented by the infamous Hong Kong police. It is a purple grape, apparently in Cantonese 'the little grape' sounds similar to 'beware of liars', and it therefore helps inform the elderly that at all times, they are being scammed. The explanation of the mascot is perhaps more complicated than any scam the elderly might get involved with.
