Re: Seen A Scam? Warn us if you have!
Had one today on my mobile phone pretending to be from ParcelForce saying that they was unable to deliver a parcel and that I was to click on a link (touch link with my finger) to have it re-delivered. Firstly i was not expecting any parcels from ParcelForce, secondly ParcelForce always put a card through the door if they can't deliver a parcel, thirdly the web address in the link was not a proper parcelforce web address and most importantly, ParcelForce have no idea who I am thus how do they know to text message me.Re: Seen A Scam?

On Saturday I received a text purporting to be from Royal Mail. It stated that a parcel required a payment of £2.99 before it could be delivered. There was a link with the message. No parcel was expected from anyone, the only parcel recently was successfully delivered by UPS. The Royal Mail message was obviously a scam so was blocked to prevent further attempts.Re: Seen A Scam?
