Now is the Time to Upgrade to Safe and Secure Communal Letterboxes

Financial Fraud Action UK (FFAUK) are warning residents or students of apartment blocks, flats and student accommodation that they are a target for fraudsters stealing mail from letterboxes in order to commit card fraud and ID theft.

The scam involves criminals gaining access to blocks of flats and stealing mail from communal letterboxes. It is therefore essential that these multiple letterboxes are as secure as possible.

It has a wealth of experience and resources manufacturing high quality mailboxes that are specially designed to be safe and secure and comply with British Standards, whilst satisfying Royal Mail requirements. We can improve letterbox security for any; wall mounted letterbox, communal letterboxes, multiple letterboxes, free standing letterboxes, apartment letterboxes, recessed letterboxes or even a standard letterbox flap.

The criminals commit different frauds depending on the nature of the personal information they have managed to steal. Documents and mail containing personal and financial information are valuable to fraudsters. Those containing debit and credit cards can be used to buy expensive goods and/or withdraw cash. Cheque books could also be stolen and used to make fraudulent transactions.

Some fraudsters may even steal utility bills that can be used to commit ID theft or to make bogus loan claims. The most basic of personal data can be used. Phone scammers who impersonate the police or banks, are able to make their calls more convincing by using the information gained from stolen documents.
