Hello

If you get a card in the post purporting to be from the Canadian postal service, please treat with suspicion.

The card advises that the postal service is holding a parcel for you, but you need to pay £9.95 to release it.

By now, alarm bells should be ringing in your head as you can only contact them by phone and you must have your credit card details to hand.

The number is 0800 011 2749.

Be warned!
