Does This Sound Like a Scam to You?
Over the last couple of weeks we've been getting mail addressed to some [data expunged] fuck who does not and never has been resident at our house. It started with one of those red 'while you were out' cards. Followed by another one the very next day, and a third the day after that - then nothing. A couple of days later there was a similar card from UPS informing us that a package had been delivered next door for the same guy at our address. The package is in a brown padded envelope that doesn't appear to contain anything at all - at least, nothing substantial.
Now we're receiving a letter for this guy every couple of days from Carphone Warehouse, T-Mobile, 3, Orange and so on. I'm assuming these letters are bills and invoices - the only thing missing is the phone to go with them, and of course Mr [data expunged].
So, the first thing I'm thinking is that the guy has ordered a free phone and somehow intercepted the device itself on the way to our house and is landing us with the bills. I don't know how he's done it or even if I'm on the right track, but it's bloody weird.
What say you?
