Royal Mail Postal Scam
This scam has been confirmed by Royal Mail and is especially relevant
as Christmas is fast approaching:
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. This is a 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 0207 2396655 or ICSTIS (the premium rate service regulator)
at www.icstis.org.uk, or your local trading standards office.
