A call says my delivery needs a payment. Is it fake?
Learn how to check a delivery fee.
Some parcels have real fees, such as import duties. The fee alone does not prove a call is real.
Do not give card details to a caller you did not expect. End the call and open the carrier site or app yourself.
Check the tracking details from your own order. Use official support if the claim is unclear.
Try this
- Do not pay on the call.
- End the call.
- Open the carrier site or app you know.
- Check your order and tracking details.
- Ask the carrier about any fee.
A message you can copy

Paste the message into ChatGPT, then fill in any blanks before you send it. ChatGPT opens in a new tab. Opening it does not send the message.

If you paid a suspect caller, contact your bank or card company promptly.
