A shipper delivers something you didn't order, or calls saying "no COD accepted, please transfer via link" — these are new scam tactics.
Common Tactics
- Unordered COD delivery: Cheap items (masks, rocks) but COD charges of $20-80
- Fake shipper phone calls: "Order doesn't accept COD, please transfer via link"
- Item switching: Correct-looking package but contents are junk/fake
Prevention
- Check order on shopping app before accepting
- DO NOT accept COD packages you didn't order
- Inspect items before payment (open in front of shipper)
- Never transfer via links sent by shippers
Remember
You have the right to refuse any COD package you didn't order. No payment needed, no explanation needed.
