Scam call
Fake Parcel & Delivery Calls
You are told a parcel could not be delivered, is being held at a depot or has customs charges to pay. The message borrows the name of Royal Mail, Evri, DPD, Yodel or another carrier and pushes you to a link or a number where you hand over card details. Real delivery firms do not ring up demanding a couple of pounds before they will drop off a parcel.
What to do if this call comes in
- Keep your card number, PIN, passwords and any verification codes to yourself.
- Don't pay, send money or buy vouchers because someone on the phone said so.
- Hang up, then contact the organisation using details you've looked up yourself.
- Rate the number here so others are warned, and forward any linked texts to 7726.
