Kelly Anne from Scotland contacted 
after
reading an article about Jessica and her daughter
Marilyn in the Weekly News.
Her story, below, contains some valuable lessons when re-directing mail.
My Nan is around the same age as
Jessica and our family have been going
through the
same sort of thing.
We were alarmed when we found thousands of scam letters my Nan had hidden in her home; like Jessica her postman had delivered them all.
We tried to work out how much she had sent to the scams, but when the figure reached thousands of pounds, we lost track of how much money she had lost.
Eventually we persuaded Nan to let us redirect her mail and we thought the problem had been solved,
What we didn't realize was that when mail is redirected, it is only the mail in that persons name that gets forwarded to the redirection address.
So the scammers could out wit us, the following year we found thousands more scam letters had been delivered by Nan's postman, and she had been scammed yet again out of thousands more pounds.
The scammers had been changing Nan's name on the envelopes or addressing the mail to the house owner, occupier or resident.
Nan is not well enough to get to the post now , but please print this as a warning to others.
Redirecting the mail doesn't work, when the royal mail and criminals appear to be working together.
My self and my family back THINK JESSICA 100% if the postman had been allowed to raise the alarm when he was delivering up to 40 scam letters a day.
Nan would not have been robbed of every penny that she had saved throughout her working life.
PS like Marilyn we have also had doors closed in our faces, when we tried to get help.
