Just received a clever phishing attack I have never seen before: a text message purporting to be from DHL with a tracking number for a package allegedly on its way to me. When you click on the link to track the package, it takes you to what purports to be an @Amazon promotion.
This, in turn, asks you to answer four poll questions to be eligible for a drawing. I did not respond to any of the questions, so I don’t know what info it’s ultimately phishing for.
But the actual @DHL site has no record of the package number in question, so I’m confident that it’s a fraud of some kind. If you get routed to a URL that purports to be from @amazon, be sure that it actually is. And specifically, be careful of this URL: amazonreward.club.
And make sure that alerts from shipping companies actually are from them. #packagephishing
To everyone telling me how to handle my email, this was a text message sent to my phone.
