Tim Flyer Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) Just got this text message from an unknown number purporting to be Royal Mail about a package . It seems to be another cynical scam so I have blocked the number and advise anyone else to do the same if they receive this sort of message. I do not give my mobile phone number to mail order companies or Royal Mail (only land line). I would also expect an e Mail from the courier mentioning suppliers name . This has not happened, so I’m certain this is a scam! details of message : +44 7869 321672 Royal Mail: Your Package Has An Unpaid Shipping Fee, Please Visit https://reschedule-pac***e.com Before The Package Gets Returned To The Sender Edited March 11, 2021 by Chris Bott - Moderator Link removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarlyBird Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Tim the link will take anyone that clicks it to a fake web site. In effect spreading the scam. Not a good idea? @Tim Flyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingcoax Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 This is not new. A variation on the TNT or DPD scams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get one of these every few days, sometimes by text and sometimes by email, straight to the spam folder with them. Whenever RM really wanted money in the past they've popped a card through the letterbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
