By: briskem1 Date: 03 Nov 2011 9:12 AM Royal Mail Postal Scam . SERIOUS The Trading Standards Office are making people aware of the following scam: A card is posted through your door from a company called PDS (Parcel Delivery Service) suggesting that they were unable to deliver a parcel and that you need to contact them on 0906 6611911 (a premium rate number). DO NOT call this number, as this is a mail scam originating from Belize. If you call the number and you start to hear a recorded message you will already have been billed £315 for the phone call. If you do receive a card with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on 02072396655 or ICSTIS (the premium rate service regulator) http://www.icstis.org.uk or your local trading standards office. It is very important that you let everyone you know about this scam as it could seriously ruin your Christmas! I hope this helps.. |
