As its coming up for christmas and we sometimes get parcells I thought I should tell you about this scam.
There is a company putting cards through peoples doors saying they have a parcell for you and couldnt deliver it. You are given a phone number to call to arrange a time for it to b delivered only there isnt a parcell and it costs you about 50quid. The Post office know about this but cant do anything. So easpecially at this time of year be carefull.

I was getting a load of them back last year. I never phoned the number and I'm glad I didn't now cos this scam was mentioned on Watchdog a few weeks later :shock:
