Overview
- Orange cards labeled as 'Important Notice' are appearing in mailboxes, claiming recipients missed a delivery and must call a specified number within seven days.
- Consumer protection organizations urge people not to call the number, as it could lead to costly scams or personal data theft.
- The scam often involves demands for personal information under the guise of settling debts or completing a 'data verification' process.
- The cards lack proper sender information, such as a company name or address, further signaling fraudulent intent.
- This scam tactic has been reported for years, but recent incidents suggest a resurgence, prompting renewed warnings from consumer advocates.
