Subject: FW: Royal mail scam.

Royal Mail postal scam.

Can you circulate this around especially as Xmas is fast approaching - it
has been confirmed by Royal Mail.
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 £15 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) at *
www.icstis.org.uk*

Thanks for the warning Happymouse, it will be interesting to see if any of us lot recieve one of those cards.

Thanks for that. I've just printed it out for Trousers to read on the desk in the morning.
(He gets up at the crack of Sparrow .art and, although I think he dips into the forum at that hour, I'm never sure.... now he'll get the message for sure.)
Thanks Happymouse.....
