Another Scam

[Rchawks]

I got a text yesterday that said my order cleared customs and that one item was missing the zip code and wasn't listed and I needed to contact them by phone to finish the delivery.
I already got my order and that it went thru customs. Hence the SCAM.

Are you sure it was a message about your order? Or just a scam message about an order?

I get text messages like this at least once a month.

 

[Rchawks]

I have too, but never has it included the word customs.

They'll try anything to get you talking on the phone. Once you're on the phone, it's even easier to reel you in.

I saw this earlier is it the same message?

Yes.

I received a text saying that I need to pay custom fees — complete scam. They’re everywhere these days, it’s honestly hard to keep up with all the tricks people try. Just when you think you’ve seen it all, something new pops up. Do you know about the amazon pallet scam? I read about it recently and was really surprised by how many people fell for it. It’s crazy how convincing some of these fake deals look online. You really have to double-check everything before clicking any links or making payments.
