Bond character gets something in the post about a pyramid scheme? (5,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chain letter

'something in the post about a pyramid scheme?' is the definition.
(a pyramid scheme might involve chain letters)

'bond character' is the wordplay.
'bond' becomes 'chain' (chain is a kind of bond).
'character' becomes 'letter' (synonyms).
'chain'+'letter'='CHAIN-LETTER'

'gets' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for chain letter that I've seen before include "one sent mushrooming?" , "Cascading correspondence" , "The clarinet (anag.)" , "Fast-spreading communication" , "Fraudulent scheme" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
