This wa fowarded to me by a friend, take note everyone.

Hi there, The following information has been cross-checked and we have verified it as an accurate and present threat. Please read and pass on as appropriate. As Christmas approaches this scam may be used regularly. "If you receive a card through your door from a Company called PDS (Parcel Delivery Service) saying that they have a parcel awaiting delivery instructions and can you contact them on 0906 6611911 DO NOT call the number as this is a mail scam originating from Belize. If you were to call the number you would start to hear a recorded message and would have already been billed £15 for the call. If you do receive a card with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on 02072396655 or ICTIS at http://www.ictis.org.uk or your local Trading Standards Office." Kind regards, Ethical Jobs www.ethical-jobs.co.uk 0845 057 0342

edit: actually, not a hoax as such, but this apparantly has started circulating again but has not been an issue since 2005.
