I've had few of the rearrange delivery scams - I got one yesterday, its easy to be had especially if you do order a lot of products online which I do, but these scams usually are missing vital information, BUT its wise to be on guard - As for money we have a password in the family thats impossible to guess for money or any similar thing needed, as the scammers will always think up new ideas.
