Scam delivery notie

[sherrardk]

I think there was something similar doing the rounds this time last year - you get a card through your letterbox saying you have missed a delivery from PDS. There is number to phone which is a premium line and costs up to £350. Just thought I'd post for anyone who wasn't aware that this is a scam.

That outfit was fined and closed down in 2005 but every year around now the rumours persist.

This is untrue. No phone traiff would be as high as £350 a minute. The email itself is a hoax and shouldn't be passwed round.

I am only passing on information that I was given - hopefully it is duff info but now I won't feel guilty if someone comes on here saying that they have been scammed.
