My 1st Award...

I think I should go buy a lottery ticket...
First I won blog candy and now the lovely Pops from Poppets Place has given me my 1st award...
I am to nominate 6 people and pass it onto them but as a few of the people I would choose will overlap with the ones Pops has nominated I have decided to give another award.
This is the award Pops has given me...

Postal Scam....

I don't know how true this is but wanted to pass on as most of us ladies eagerly await package deliveries full of crafting goodies...
If it is true then I wouldn't like to think any of you get caught out...
Can you circulate this around especially as Christmas is fast approaching - It has been confirmed by Royal Mail. The Trading Standards Office are making People aware of the following scam:
A card is posted through your door from a company called PDS (Parcel Delivery Service)suggesting that they were unable to deliver a parcel and That you need to contact them on 0906 6611911 (a premium rate number).
DO NOT call this number, as this is a mail scam originating from Belize. If you call the number and you start to hear a recorded message you will Already have been billed £15 for the phone call.
If you do receive a card with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on 02072396655 or ICSTIS (the premium rate service regulator) at www.icstis.org.uk
