Summary: Scammers have seen a 34% increase in new phishing sites impersonating delivery services during the holiday season. These fake websites mimic legitimate postal operators and delivery companies and trick victims into giving their personal and payment details. The scammers use official names, logos, and typosquatted URLs to add legitimacy. They also restrict access to the sites by geolocation, device, and operating system, and keep them live for only a few days. Last-minute shoppers are warned to verify sender details, search through official channels cautiously, and be aware of ongoing scams.
