I read on yahoo today that there is a new scam on the cards.
Basically the scam artists will get a contract phone using the details of someone who has died.
They will get the phone sent to your home and hen ring you saying it was sent in error and a courier will call to collect it today. The person who calls is not a courier he is part of the scam.
To combat this simply call the company who sent the phone and then when this so called "courier" calls either have the police waiting or tell him that a courier has already collected it.
