Check parcel labels delivered at your home and avoid a scam
CHECK parcel labels carefully before accepting them at home.
That’s the message from Beds Police after a scam in which parcels have been delivered with labels showing a correct address, but an unknown name.
Soon after the delivery, a mixed race woman in her 20s with red hair collects the package. But some occupants have then received payment demands for the parcel.
If you have any details about the scam, contact Sgt Andy Rivers on 01234 841212 or call Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555111.
