Scamming - Fraud
Scammers are sending the Local Depot 43 scam text below with a link to the phishing website: local-depot43.com. The phishing website purports to be the UK Post Office and claims a package needs to be redelivered. It then requests a fee of £1.45 for the re-delivery and requests your credit card details and security code. But, if the requested information is sent, it will be used fraudulently.
"Simon attempted to deliver your parceI today but no one was home. You can rescheduIe a new date, via: local-depot43.com"
If you have been tricked by the Local Depot 43 scam text and have submitted your credit card information, please contact your bank for help.
