    postal scam

    sean posted a topic in General chat

    just received this.....dont know any more but thought i would share anyway..... Postal Scam: Can you circulate this around especially as Xmas is fast approaching - it has been confirmed by Royal Mail. The Trading Standards Office are making people aware of the following scam: A card is posted through your door from a company called PDS (Parcel Delivery Service) suggesting that they were unable to deliver a parcel and that you need to contact them on 0906 6611911 (a Premium rate number). DO NOT call this number, as this is a mail scam originating from Belize. If you call the number and you start to hear a recorded message you will already have been billed £315 for the phone call. If you do receive a card with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on 020 7239 6655. For more information, see the Crime Stoppers website: Postal delivery scam | Crimestoppers UK

    Another painting by Gainsborough has also been proven to involve quite a bit of artistic license...... Rackham went in search of this wood looking at old maps.......to no avail. Rackham.... ' I could not reconcile the woodland with any of the woodlands known in contemporary maps. The trees though beautifully detailed are barely identifiable. The scene lacks infrastructure, coppice stools, banks and ditches bordering the lane etc.' 'Susan Foister has show that it is derived in detail from a landscape by Ruisdael. A picture that has appeared on the cover of a book about English woodland is thus of a foreign wood'. Food for thought:sneaky2:

    How true a dipiction are these paintings however....? I'm no expert on constable or Elms for that matter but this was a subject brought up by Oliver Rackham in his seminal work 'woodlands'. A painting of Salisbury cathedral by constable is questioned as thus by Rackham..... 'The spire is framed by two magnificent leafy elms, not the english elm the common species around salisbury but East Anglian elms. Were they a real outlier of east Anglian Elm or were they imported from an East Anglian themed sketch book?'
