Amazon shoppers warned over new 'brushing' scam as unsolicited parcels turn up on doorsteps

Amazon shoppers are being warned of a new scam, after cheap scarves have started arriving at peoples' houses despite customers never placing an order for them.

Consumer experts at Which? are warning that a number of people are currently receiving unsolicited 'Suzhichou' scarves, despite never hearing of the brand or placing an order for one.

It's all said to be part of a brand new 'brushing' scam, which allows the dodgy seller to leave a five-star review on their own profile to in-turn boost their seller rating.
