Postal scammers- heads up.
 
Morning folks, just had a postal scam from a company called "Matters consulting" based in cheltenham.
Theyre scammers who send out mailshots to try and sucker people in to responding via post or phone so they can confirm your post code and then sign you up for a gym membership which youll have problems getting out of.
Its nothing less than criminals who need a dammed good shoeing!

Inside the envelope is a light blue slip saying "congratulations" implying that youve won some prize or other but theres nothing to be won as usual theyre after your money.

Go here for further info.

Hope this saves someone. :tup:

If it's got a reply paid envelope, drop a poo in there and post it back.

If it hasn't, post loads of stuff to them without a stamp.


Simple and fun at the same time!

Contents of an ash tray are always entertaining to post too...

But full ashtrays are quite hard to find these days.

The other thing to do, if you're bored is fill in all the 'offers' in the TVTimes and alike using their address.

Done some digging.
Guy behind it is called "seb clark" and is a piece of shit apparently.
He's well known for cyber squatting and blackmailing domain owners to get their domains back after he's registered them in his name.

Google Seb Clark, saffron essex.

Guy needs a darn good kicking, such is my contempt for these turds...heck id do it meself.

Do not post or phone as its your personal info he's after.
Apparently in this scam you get signed up to 750 quids worth of cruddy gym memberships with the promise of a free ass crack waxing or suchlike....i can do that myself with some duct tape.. :D

lmfao

another heads up I got earlier today was about paypal,page 44/45 of the daily mail.Loads of people losing their money from either buying or selling stuff and paypal not coughing up when things go wrong.
