A call says my delivery needs a payment. Is it fake?
You will learn how to spot a fake delivery call asking for money.
A caller says your package needs a small fee. It sounds simple.
Real delivery companies rarely call you for a surprise payment.
They want your card details. Hang up and check it yourself.
Try this
- Do not give your card details on the call.
- Do not press any buttons they ask you to press.
- Hang up. You can always call back later.
- Check your real orders on the app or website yourself.
- If there is no real package, it was a scam.
