🚨 How to Identify a FedEx Text Scam

Here are common signs:

❌ 1. Unsolicited Tracking Links

• Example:
  "FedEx: Your package is on hold. Track it here: fedex.delivery-update123.com"
  (This is not a real FedEx URL)

❌ 2. Urgent Language or Threats

• Phrases like:

  • “Your package will be returned unless you act now.”

  • “Click to avoid extra fees.”

❌ 3. Suspicious URLs

• Real FedEx links will come from:
  fedex.com, fedex.ca, or their official subdomains.

• Scammers use fake domains like:

  • fedex-alerts.info

  • delivery-fedex.xyz

❌ 4. Requests for Personal Information

• Real FedEx will never ask via text for:

  • Social Security numbers

  • Credit card details

  • Login credentials
