Fraudsters used the image of InPost to create a fake page, demanding payment for a courier delivery.

Potential victims are convinced that InPost branches have been closed to the coronavirus pandemic. The victim is encouraged to pay for the shipping in order to deliver it home by courier, rather than waiting for pickup at an InPost branch.

The scammers inform that after making the payment, the victim will receive an SMS notification along with a courier number. Additionally, we are assured that the package will be delivered within 24 hours.

According to the experts from Threat Labs, fraudsters have created a fake BNP Paribas payment gateway to extort money.
