Preguntas Frecuentes
Sobre Delivery Scam
1 How do delivery scams work?
Scammers send fake delivery notifications via text or email claiming a package couldn't be delivered. Links lead to phishing sites requesting personal or payment information. Sometimes they claim a small fee is needed for redelivery.
2 How can I tell if a delivery notification is real?
Check the sender's email/phone number carefully. Look up tracking directly on the carrier's official website or app. Legitimate carriers won't ask for payment via text links. Check if you're actually expecting a package.
3 What information will delivery companies never ask for?
Legitimate delivery companies won't ask for your full credit card number, Social Security number, bank account details, or passwords via text or email. They also won't request payment through links in text messages.
4 I clicked a fake delivery link - what should I do?
If you entered information, change passwords immediately, monitor your accounts, and contact your bank if you entered payment info. Run an antivirus scan. If you downloaded anything, it may be malware.
5 Are "you missed a delivery" door tags legitimate?
Usually yes, but verify by entering the tracking number on the carrier's official website. Scammers sometimes leave fake door tags with scam phone numbers. Never call a number from a tag without verifying the carrier first.
