XMAS SCAM


postal   delivery scam


Someone called this morning saying they had put a wrong postcode in an internet purchase and expected the package to arrive with us.  Jane knew there was something fishy.  When the package came later, it was addressed to her home address.  The package was two mobile phones.  The postman said there was a lot of this happening and he took them away to be sent back to the seller.  Clearly the fraudster was going to get the phones and we were going to get the bills.

 

He has just come back and I pretended they had not been delivered.  I asked him for an address and number where I could contact him to tell him when they arrived and he got three mobile phones from his pocket and gave me a number (I presume he is not getting the bill for that one either) and an address.  Would the police be interested?
