Parcel For Collection

One of the many variations is this.

A Card may be pushed through your door saying you
have a parcel for collection.

Or a delivery note through the door, but either way
to get you to call the number on the card.

The Number can be a High Premium Number, £1.50 per min
or higher.

And there is no Parcel.

Cheers for that Mark.

Better watch out for this.

Any info on what the cards look like or the name of the company on them?

Can be anything Joe... the scam has been going on all over the country for years, it not a localised problem or isolated set of incidents.

Fair enough.

I've never had one through my door as of yet!

Neither have I... but it is a problem that happens thats for sure - its been on many tv programs, including watchdog and the real hustle.
