Default scam to be aware of...

Mates misses had her bags stolen in Fosse park in the changing rooms. Some reached in and snatched the bags and did a runner.

Later that day she got a call from Fosse Way security telling her that he bags had been recovered and to come straight over and collect them.

She did, only to find they knew nothing about it.

On arrival home she found the house had been done over, the scummers had her address, phone and keys to the house, so knowing that a couple are likely to go back over together, they knew there was a good chance the house would be empty.

This scam has been around for a while now, its so easy for people to get done by it. No doubt there was someone watching the house to make sure no one else was in.
