We want to help you avoid being a victim of fraud
Fraudulent communications adopt many different forms and are the unauthorized actions of third parties. These messages, sometimes referred to as “phishing” or “spoofing,” are becoming more common and may appear legitimate by incorporating company brands, colors, or other legal disclaimers. We take fraud and the protection of our customers’ information seriously. We want to help make sure you don’t fall victim to phishing or other types of fraudulent activity whether it’s through email, text, phone, or social media.Here are some tips to keep in mind:
• UPS will not request personal information, financial information, account numbers, IDs, passwords or copies of invoices in an unsolicited manner through email, mail, text, phone or fax, especially in exchange for the transportation of goods and services.
• If you receive a message that appears to be from UPS that you believe is fraudulent, send a screenshot of the message or forward it to [email protected] for investigation.
