..in the post that I don't remember ordering. Can't find a reference to it anywhere. AM slightly worried my bank acc has been hacked but I only ever order through PayPal or credit card. Anyone else ever had anything similar? Shall I return them or shall I keep them?!

With your name and address on? There is a scam I’m aware of that involves someone sending a parcel to you and then knocking and asking for it. I’d have to Google to remember exactly why it’s a scam though.

The reason I found out someone was using my name and address to scam stuff was that one of them got through to me. Definitely call the company and let them know.

The scammers with my address were managing to get the stuff diverted to another address.

I remember the details now - there’s a chance it’s identity fraud and they’ve purchased them on credit using your details. You need to speak to the company and figure out how they were ordered and paid for. And don’t hand anything over to anyone who might come knocking.

Ooh thank you... I hope it isn’t anything suspicious but I will check it out...
