Caution urged over delivery scam
|
|
Residents in Northumberland and Cumbria are being warned about a potentially costly parcel delivery scam.
Cards have been posted through doors suggesting a parcel could not be delivered and asking householders to call an 0906 number.
However, once the recorded message has begun the caller has already been billed £15 for the call.
Officials say genuine parcel delivery companies do exist but people need to watch out for premium rate numbers.
