Canada Post workers are back on the job, and so are scammers.
As a result, the Nelson Police Department is reminding people to be wary of unsolicited or unexpected emails related to parcel delivery.
With the holidays in full swing, many people are expecting deliveries and may unknowingly fall victim to scams claiming to be related to package backlogs.
Police say recent scams have asked Canadian customers to enter their “zip code,” which is a clear indication the communication is fraudulent.
Scams of this nature can have different variations but may look similar to the one pictured above.
Do not click on any links provided or enter personal information such as your address or postal code.
If you believe the communication may be authentic, contact the service provider through legitimate contact information sources, not the link or phone number provided in the message you received.
