SCAM CALL & EMAIL

[outpost76]

I received a phone call from a fairly reasonable sounding individual. I didn't trust it so requested he email me. The email is almost reasonable as well. I feel like many could fall for it.

Here's the email follow up to the phone call:

We will activate your new chip card and your previous chip card will be disabled and you don't have to pay for your old contract. 

We are just going to cancel your current contract with your authorization and cancellation charges will be paid by Phone Ltd., by taking the PUCK CODE from your current services we will provide you the new SIM card with the same number and the same network provider. 

When will your package be delivered? 
Our couriers Canada Post, DHL, FedEx and Purolator will send you a notification on the day of your delivery; they'll also give you a 1-hour time slot. This will be between 8 am and 6 pm, Monday to Sunday – so you won't have to stay at home all day. 

Once your order will be confirmed you will get a confirmation email from our side and a verification call from the Dispatch Department and we will provide you with the tracking number for your order so you can track it by yourself. Your parcel will be delivered at the address you will be providing and it must be the same address which is registered with your bank as well. You will receive your parcel within 2 to 4 Working days after placing your order. 

Trial Period:- 
You have a trial period of the first 15 days, if you found anything wrong with the device you can cancel the contract without any cancellation charges and the upfront cost you paid that will be refunded back to your account. After one month you'll receive your first monthly bill. If you change your mind you still have time for three months to cancel the contract without any cancellation fee, but the line rent you have paid for three months and the upfront cost will not be refunded back.

The teluspromotiontelus.network domain was created a week ago. The email makes it sound like they represent TELUS but at best they are a reseller. At worst it's an outright scam. If they really are in Ontario as the email and domain registration show then TELUS legal department could follow up.

[Nighthawk]

The address at the bottom of the email is for a strip mall and there is a Telus dealer located there. I would hope that no one associated with that location would be dumb enough to send spam like this. I assume the spammers just randomly chose a location to look more legit, or they live in the area. The phone number has a Yukon / NWT / NU area code. It's not actually a toll free number.

The spam email has so many errors in it. Grammar, spelling, names, incorrect and missing technical details, etc.
