Did anyone get this $500 scam happen to them? possilby from someone here?
 

Hey all..

Im not sure if this scam originated from info I supplied to a site that i got from here..

so posting this message to see if anyone has been scammed the same way etc.. if other ppl have, the scam has more than likely originated from a site promoted in here.


I got a call from UPS yesterday, stating they had a delivery for me,
they had my company name , my name and address and phone number etc.

They then stated the delivery had a $495.00 pick up fee, to be presented on delivery etc...

So I asked what the parcel was, it was a Gift Basket from
www.madetoorder.com
quoting an ID number from a Person Called Meche.

So I phoned UPS back and cancelled the delievery .


Has anyone here had this happen to them, had a delivery from UPS or similar parcel deliverer in your area??

If not.. disregard this thread.

Pete

and now tell us about the scam you where refering to in your subject??

Dang,

doesn't sound good, a package you didn't order.

yeah.. especially paying $495 for a $20 gift basket LOL

Well he didnt explain it but its pretty obvious. A company is sending out worthless items with a COD expecting some dumbasses to pay for it.

yes multi.. thats exactly what the scam is..

sorry.. i should of been more specific..

generally if a secretary takes the initial call, they would/ could accept it, not knowing any better etc..

I just posted it here to see if its happend to any one else recently etc.. and if there were a few , I think I know which site it comes from etc.
