Dim Scammers
Mrs H received another scam text this morning, the one about Royal Mail having tried to deliver a package so the recipient is invited click a link to resolve the issue. I've received a few of them too. In this case the name of the poor chap supposedly trying but failing to deliver the package was 'Simon'.
Apart from it being an obvious scam, apart from Royal Mail supposedly delivering packages on a Bank Holiday, the time of the text when 'Simon' tried to deliver the package was 3:45am.
It just isn't good enough - dim scammers need to raise their game if they expect us to take them seriously and actually do some investigation. A quick lesson on global time zones would be a good start in this case, because the text probably didn't originate in the UK. Royal Mail isn't that keen.

Let's hope they stay stupid.
Sackers - I recently came across a case where a smart young scammer switched to a legitimate career because the scamming operation was crude and he saw legitimate work as a better option and a better use of his skills.
Heh! Simon also tried to deliver my parcel at the weekend. I didn't notice the time though, as I'd deleted the text before I read that far
Bucko - we were chatting to relatives today and it turned out that 'Simon' has tried to deliver a parcel to them too. He certainly gets around.
He gets around, but he doesn't seem to actually deliver much
