Scam

It has been confirmed by Royal Mail. The Trading Standards Office are making people aware of the following scam:
A card is posted through your door from a company called PDS (Parcel Delivery Service) suggesting that they were unable to deliver a parcel and that you need to contact them on 0906 6611911 (a premium rate number).
DO NOT call this number, as this is a mail scam originating from Belize.
If you call the number and you start to hear a recorded message you will already have been billed £15 for the phone call.
If you do receive a card with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on [number removed] or ICSTIS (the premium rate service regulator) at
www.icstis.org.uk
Please circulate this to avoid anyone else being ripped off.

No Cold Callers.
EnergySure code of practice now officially includes rules that state energy company sales staff should not knock on any door that displays a ‘no cold callers' sign.
If the energy companies' sales staff break this rule you can complain to the Energy Ombudsman.
If you display a sign and the energy companies disobey your wishes note down the employee name and number and report this to their company and Consumer Direct on: 08454 04 05 06
If you would like a free ‘no cold callers' display sign for your door you can print one from
