It has come to the attention of Royal Mail that fraudsters are posting cards through household letterboxes from a company called PDS (Parcel Delivery Services), claiming that they have attempted to deliver a parcel and recieved no reply.

It also states that the householder need to call 0906 6611911 (A premium rate number)to re-arange delivery.

DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER, it is a scam originating from Belize.

If you do call this number and hear a recorded message you will already have been charged in execess of £10.00 for the call!!!!

 

If you recieve such a card please call Royal Mail Security and Investigation Dept. on 0207 239 6655 or contact ICSTIS (The the premium rate call regulator) at www.icstis.org.uk

Found this on another forum thought it was worth posting for all you UK people.

thanks for the info :)

Wasn't that posted before :unsure: I read it before anyway.

Basically a problem with BT rather then Royal Mail. Could be endless scams getting people to ring premium rate numbers, for various reasons.

We got told about this a while ago, but it's £15, not £10.
