Parcel collection (PDS) scam - £315 premium rate phone call
I received an email containing these details this morning
From Paul Dowling Ps70YR
Can you circulate this around especially as Christmas 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 £315
for the phone call.
If you do receive a card with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on 020 7239 6655
