Scam Blog Post

I once nearly fell for a convincing delivery scam that arrived as a simple message claiming my package couldn’t be delivered. Since I had actually ordered something recently, it seemed believable, and the link led to a page that looked almost identical to a real shipping site. Everything seemed normal until it asked for personal details, including my card information, which immediately raised suspicion. A closer look at the URL revealed a small spelling error, and checking the real company’s website confirmed the whole thing was fake. I avoided the scam in time, and the experience reminded me how polished scams have become and how important it is to double-check links and never share sensitive information without verifying the source.
