Caution is essential when receiving unsolicited calls demanding payment for packages. This scenario involves scammers impersonating a legitimate courier service to extract money via fake links. They create urgency around a supposed delivery to trick recipients into clicking malicious sites, potentially leading to financial loss or data theft. Never click unknown links or provide payment details over the phone. Instead, verify directly with the official courier using contact info from their website, not the caller's details. Report such incidents to authorities and block the number to prevent further harassment. Stay vigilant to avoid falling for these common cost trap schemes.
