Twice my mother sent money down to my sister in law in Cheshire and it was taken out of the birthday card and Christmas Card. Also my sister in law sent Marks and Spencers vouchers to my mother, the envelope was slashed and so was the inner one with vouchers in, but they didn't take them out. Maybe thought the numbers off the vouchers were recorded. As this came in a polythene bag because of the damage the Royal Mail tried to say it had been damaged in the process when we complained. It was obvious it hadn't. They do tell you not to send money but my mother is quite old, now I get her to send a cheque or use a brown envelope to disguise. The post is getting terrible for thieving. Even so it is a job of trust. I can't remember it being as bad as years ago.
