The Customs Department has issued a warning about a new scam involving fraudulent parcels falsely claiming the presence of illegal substances. This scam targets unsuspecting recipients who receive parcels with deceptive messages stating that illegal drugs have been found inside, prompting threats to involve law enforcement.

The fraud scheme operates by sending parcels to individuals, often with labels indicating that illegal drugs have been discovered within the package. The messages inside these parcels instruct the recipient to contact a specified number or face police involvement. This tactic is designed to intimidate recipients into complying with the scammers’ demands.

In response to this emerging threat, the Customs Department advises recipients to exercise caution and follow specific measures to protect themselves from falling victim to this scam. Authorities recommend that recipients should verify the authenticity of any such claims before taking any action. They emphasize that the Customs Department does not communicate through such means and that individuals should not disclose personal information or pay any amount demanded by the scammers.

This alert comes amid growing concerns over fraudulent activities targeting individuals through deceptive parcel deliveries. The Customs Department urges the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious parcels or communications to the appropriate authorities promptly.

The department reassures the public that it is actively investigating these incidents and working to prevent further exploitation of unsuspecting individuals. They encourage the public to stay informed about such scams and take proactive steps to safeguard themselves against fraudulent activities targeting parcel recipients.
