TODAY'S SCAM

Be AWARE.<br><br>We just had a call from an American sounding guy asking for us to pick up a package from Lincoln to Nottingham.<br><br>He said he would also need us to pay £100 at the UPS depot and he would re-imbrse us on delivery.<br><br>I told him this was not permitted as policy<br><br>I said we could collect the £100 from him in Aimee the delivery charge.<br><br>He said he would get back to us.<br><br>And his number was witheld.<br>

Is it a scam?...or just a stoopid yank?

yep sounds dodgey to me!<br>We had a spate of these a while back,<br>Some chap wanted a BMW key picked from a dealer in Exeter and delivering to SE1,<br>Now don't get me wrong they are&nbsp; good cars but they are hardly exotic, so I phoned the dealer just to make sure, it turns out that the dealer can cut and program a key ready to use and you need to pick it up in person with lots of photo ID etc I was told that they will not be releasing the key under any circumstances!!!<br><br>&nbsp;<br>

had a spate of scams from OL19 area a while back
