Beware of any unsolicited courier news

The most recent scamming incidents have erupted from fake courier consignments or shipments. The most notable name in the scam is FedEx. A similar fraud was bound to happen with me had I not acted cautiously. About 15 days ago, I got a call from an unknown contact portraying to be manager from FedEx. He reported that a consignment sent by me is refused to be delivered to consignee because of some illegal content apprehended in sent courier. I was advised to speak with the customer care representative for further elaboration. So being stressed about likelihood of becoming a legal defaulter, I was about to reach the customer care by adhering the IVR instruction. That fear of becoming a defaulter and the press of that one customer care number would actually have made a victim rather than an offender. I took a minute and thought if I had ever: The answer was known only to me. And it was a big no. I disconnected the call and blocked the contact. Similar actions are being taken on WhatsApp and through emails carrying invitations and links. Here I would request all to take help of the savior platform like myajuna.com that carries out all verification as to whether the link leads to a genuine business or not. Source: Personal experience
