With Christmas fast approaching, it's a hectic time of year and many of us will be receiving online and catalogue orders for xmas presents. I have been contacted by the Royal Mail, Trading Standards and Phonepay Plus, the UK regulator for premium rate phoneservices, to promote awareness of postal scams which may be circulating in the next fews months.
