I'm fed up with the calls about insurance on my white goods. I don't have any and don't want any, but they keep phoning (and changing the number so i can't block it!).

I had an email from Royal Mail informing me that an attempt had been made to deliver a parcel at 7.30 am yesterday, with a link attached to retrieve it:
1) I am always up before then and no one attempted to deliver a parcel at that time
2) We always get a card put through the letterbox if a parcel cannot be delivered
3) We are not expecting any parcels

So I have deleted the email and not opened the link

We are also getting quite a few phone calls on our landline at roughly the same time every few days informing us that we have a problem with our Microsoft account. No we don’t!

At 1am this morning, I heard my phone beeping, on checking this morning I saw it was a message from EVRI, telling my my courier, "Kevin", had been unable to deliver a parcel.

1.Our courier is not called Kevin
2.Our courier, knows to leave parcels in greenhouse or
with our obliging neighbours.
3.I have the EVRI app, where I can check.
4.4 I am not awaiting any deliveries.
5.EVRI, do not message at 1am, which alerted me to the
fact that the message was sent from another time zone.

My conclusion, this is a SCAM, but a pretty good one, if you are not savvy enough to realise.
In the past two days, I have had messages from Santander and UPS. The scammers are very busy!
Be aware!
