Become a Scambuster!


Between the 1-26 February 2010, Scamnesty bins will be placed around the country
in public places so you can bin those pesky scam letters you have received in the post.
As well as letters and mailers some scammers send emails, text messages or will call you
at your home. Now you can report these phone calls and forward us your suspected
scam emails and websites and help us to beat the scammers!

    Might also be worth stapling a note to the letters explaining exactly why they're unlawful (quoting relevant statute/case law), since half the time even the so-called "experts" don't know the law, judging by some of the advice given by Consumer Direct and CAB to people who post on here.
