Phishing attacks impersonate delivery services by sending fake emails or text messages that appear to be from legitimate delivery companies such as FedEx, UPS, or DHL. These messages typically contain urgent requests or enticing offers, prompting users to click on a link or download an attachment. Once clicked, users are directed to a fake website that closely resembles the legitimate delivery service’s site. Here, users are asked to enter personal information, payment details, or login credentials, which are then captured by the cybercriminals behind the phishing attack. This deceptive technique preys on the trust and urgency associated with delivery services to trick users into revealing sensitive information unwittingly.
