  2. Fake DPD email - says your parcel needs a new delivery time and asks you to pay £3 or £1.  Looks very convincing.  With Black Friday looming and new model releases being couriered about at the moment please do not be tempted to reply.

      How do I know?

      I've recently applied to renew my driving licence on line and learned the hard way that I'd used a fake website.  The nearest I got to a clue that all wasnt what it appeared to be was that it asked it for my state and zipcode, not my county and postcode, and to my eternal regret all that did was make me indignant, not suspicious.

  3. 1 year and 1000 job apps. Still unemployed.

      Sadly not - I get a tiny pension from the Army which nullifies the dole.
