Title: Post Office Missed Delivery
Post by: AlanHo on August 22, 2021, 13:10:41: Today I received a text message at 12:15 pm purporting to be from the post office as follows

PostOffice: Sorry we
Missed you today at 11:22
am on 22/08. Please
book your re-delivery for
your parcel here Https://
redelivery-establish.com

This is a cunning variation of the usual scam where the text asks for a small payment to organise re-delivery and was obviously from a scumbag unaware that the postman does not come on a Sunday.
Also, people need to ask themselves how the Post Office would know your mobile number.

I bet some gullible people fall for this.

Haven't seen that one yet, usually it's the Facebook one saying someone has tried to access my account...I've never had/used Facebook :rolleyes: :)

Not FB. Message directly to your phone.
It's happening all over the world. Only the last two or three weeks here though.
