Please read the article below regarding a phone scam operating in Lancashire…….

Phone scam with £15 bill

A SCAM which could land you with a £15 charge on your phonebill is operating in Kirkham.
A company called the Parcel Delivery Service is dropping leaflets through letter boxes saying that they have a parcel awaiting delivery.

The leaflet then says to contact them on 0906 6611911.

Lancashire police have issued a warning. The mail scam originated from Belize.

If you call the number you will hear a recorded message and be billed £15. If you receive a card with these details inform Trading Standards on 01772 533508.

Sounds feasible doesn't it ?... main thing is never, ever, ring an 090 number.

I think we had notification of this scam through our letter box courtesy of our local bobby....wasn't that nice of him?
Like Kate, I would never ring an 090 number.
