Other LanguagesIt seems innocent enough: an e-mail that indicates a shipper such as FedEx, DHL or UPS tried to deliver a package to you. You’re told to print out an invoice. But opening the attachment or clicking on the link infects your computer!
Scammers know that the holidays are a hot time to send gifts, and many of us wouldn’t question an unexpected package. If you see an attachment, don’t open it. If you receive an e-mail with a link, don’t click on it. If you have questions, call the delivery company directly – using a number you looked up.
