Fraudsters posing as Ukrposhta

Users receive suspicious messages regarding parcels, asking them to confirm their delivery address via a provided link.

If you happen to receive such a notification, it's best not to click on any links.

"Under no circumstances should you follow such links or enter your data, as fraudsters could gain access to your personal information," warns Ukrposhta.

Be cautious, as any extra punctuation marks may indicate fraud.

"Any additional dashes, commas, periods, or extra letters suggest fraud. Furthermore, we do not communicate from unknown numbers. Do not enter banking details or share anything with strangers," the statement reads.
