parcel scam

paulbaconsarnie

just a warning to all of you.
a 'company' calling itself PDS (parcel delivery service) are posting cards through peoples doors (definately happening in eltham, may be other areas), the card says "sorry we were unable to deliver a parcel as you were out" etc, then gives a number to call to arrange the delivery. don't call this number because as soon as you are connected you are billed £15 for the call.
the number is 09066611911. it is a scam originating from belize (is andy hunt skint?).

if you receive a card, contact royal mail fraud 02072396655. or the premium rate service regulator at www.icstis.org.uk.

If we catch the people delivering the cards should we do a citizen's arrest and sit on them till the postie police arrive?

Either that or batter the living daylights out of them!! (or get hold of their mobiles and ring the number constantly)
