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.
