Local Depot 27 Scam UK Post Office Text - local-depot27.com

Scammers are sending the Local Depot 27 scam text below with a link to the phishing website local-depot27.com. The phishing website purports to be the UK Post Office and claims there was an attempt to deliver a parcel but no one was in. It then requests a fee for the re-delivery and requests your credit card details and security code. But, if the requested information is sent, it will be used fraudulently.

I had exactly the same message today 13.1.23 with the same wrong spelling of schedule, from a different phone number. I was at home and knew nobody came. It's a fairly obvious scam because the name of the delivery company is not given.

I was told that as I had already entered my name, address and date of birth before I realised it was a scam I could still have a problem as my details could be used for buy now pay later items. I have reported this to Action Fraud. They were very helpful
