Alert : Postal Service Scam!

Subject: POSTAL SERVICE SCAM


Postal Scam

Can you circulate this around especially as Xmas 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 £15 for the phone call. If you do receive a card
with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on 02072396655 or
ICSTIS (the Premium rate service regulator) at
www.icstis.org.uk
