Title: BE AWARE
Post by: Muddy Moo on March 29, 2006, 16:33:10
If you receive a card through your door from a company call PDS (Parcel
Delivery Service) saying that they have a parcel awaiting  delivery instructions
and can you contact them on 0906 6611911

DO NOT call the 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         ICTIS at http://www.icstis.org.uk
or         your local  trading standards office.

This is a genuine scam.

ICTIS have the following information about this number.
This is a card posted through your letter box from PDS Parcel Delivery
suggesting that they were unable to deliver a parcel and to call the premium
rate number in question. This service costs £1.50 per minute.
This service is under investigation by ICSTIS.

I had one of these and we passed it on to trading standards they were very interested as it is completley missleading but look so legitimate.
