Warning: Fake emails claiming to be from DPD

There are phishing emails circulating in which scammers pose as delivery service DPD. These emails typically have the subject "Shipping Update" and claim that a DPD parcel is on its way. In reality, these messages are designed to steal personal information or install malicious software.

Be aware of the following signs:

- A double DPD logo
- The sender’s email address does not end in @dpd.nl
- French terms such as "moyen de paiement" instead of Dutch or English
- A request to click a link to view shipping details

Important:
- Do not click on any links in suspicious emails.
- DPD never asks for advance payments, except in the case of customs duties for parcels coming from the United Kingdom. In such cases, the email will always include a 14-digit parcel number that can be verified via the official Track & Trace page.
- If in doubt, contact DPD via the official contact form or call us at +31 85 0022222.
- You can also report suspicious emails to the Fraud Helpdesk, which helps protect other consumers.
