Even fake courier messages can empty your bank account

That 'PosLaju' or 'DHL' SMS saying you missed a delivery? It might not be real. Courier scams are now one of the fastest-rising fraud types in Malaysia, tricking users into clicking fake tracking links. These links lead to phishing sites or malware that capture your banking logins and OTPs. Scammers even copy real company names and logos to make the message look official.

SaferDaily Tip: Check your parcel status only through official apps or websites — never through SMS or chat links. When in doubt, call the courier directly.
