Strange delivery
« on: October 01, 2013, 06:30:39 pm »
Bit of a bizarre one :rolleye:. Came home today and discovered that a scabby bike has been delivered to me which I have no idea about!

It's has my name and address as the recipient so I'm not sure how they got these details.

What to do? Tempted to chuck it as I don't have the space. Tried to call yodel but no joy.

Used to be a con move years ago  - if you sign for it, they look to receive the value it was sold for,even though your not aware of the purchase.

My move knowing Yodel  would be to notify the police incase it is a con in the making!

They can certainly try  :grin:

Phoned yodel, no return address and absolutely no contact details. Strange!

How scabby is it? Seems a bit odd. Not a rare and expensive bike left by a relative under strict instructions to only deliver on a certain date/time so you can realise it's value? Haha.
