Have you received a suspicious text message claiming to be from Evri? Be on high alert! A new phishing scam is circulating, targeting unsuspecting recipients with fake delivery notifications.
How the Scam Works
The scam typically involves a text message claiming that your Evri parcel couldn't be delivered due to an unclear address. It then directs you to a fraudulent website to update your details. Once you enter your personal information, scammers can gain access to your accounts and steal your identity.
Key Indicators of a Phishing Scam
- Urgent and vague language: The message often creates a sense of urgency without providing specific details about the package.
- Suspicious links: The link provided in the text message will lead to a fake website, not the official Evri platform.
- Poor grammar and spelling: Phishing scams often contain grammatical errors and typos.
How to Protect Yourself
- Ignore the message: Delete the text message without clicking any links.
- Do not share personal information: Never provide your personal details, such as your address, bank details, or credit card information, in response to unsolicited messages.
- Be cautious of unexpected links: Avoid clicking on links in unsolicited emails or text messages.
- Verify the sender: If you're unsure about a message, contact Evri directly through their official channels to verify the information.
