Rental Scammer - [email protected]

****
This thief asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or MoneyGram to an escrow company with a promise that he will send the keys through a courier company.

Sounds safe. It's not!
These companies do not work this way.

The scammer plays the part of both the landlord, the courier company and their agent.

XDP EXPRESS
Versatility in Logistics


Welcome to XDP Worldwide Express.

XDP Express was formed in 1995 and has since grown to be the largest privately owned parcel carrier in the UK, and has built a reputation for reliability and quality of service.

With a team of over 500 and with a franchise network in excess of 60 depots nationwide, our reputation for customer focused logistics has gone from strength to strength

We operate a manual sortation system, which allows us to be more flexible in the freight we carry and ensures we have a much lower incidence of damage compared to automated belt systems. It also allows us to effectively deal with a wider variety of freight.

Most time-sensitive international shipments travel by air – but we will always calculate the quickest, safest and most economical method for your particular requirements. XDP has been in business for several years and ranks high as an international express delivery company.

When you ask the question of why you should choose XDP Express, the answer is in the details and experience. We are a caring and successful company that has strived to increase their operations to fit consumer needs.
