SCAM MAIL
The National Trading Standards
If you, or someone you know is in receipt of scam or nuisance mail,
the NTS Scams Teams Investigators want to see it!
They already use the mail that they receive from Scam Marshals to great effect through their disruption techniques, but the Team would like to see more and put a stop to these mailings landing on consumers’ door steps.

The NTS Scams Team estimate that only 5% of these crimes are reported. This can be due to a number of reasons like shame or embarrassment, or even that they don’t know who to report them to. Victims of these crimes shouldn’t feel ashamed at all, these criminals are experts at what they do and know exactly how to commit their fraud.
