The most common parcel & delivery scams

A small fee to release your parcel

A text or email says your parcel is on hold and asks for a small payment for redelivery or customs. The amount is tiny on purpose. The payment page is built to capture your card details.

Confirm your address

You are told a delivery failed because your address was incomplete and asked to confirm your details through a link.

Missed delivery card or call

A fake missed-delivery note or voicemail asks you to call a premium-rate number or visit a website to rebook.
