Website Track and Trace Scam
Highlighted recently in the NZ Herald is a scam making the rounds in New Zealand posing as a "courier package alert" to unsuspecting receivers who may or may not think a parcel is coming to them, or are unaware they are being sent something.
The scammers direct the individuals to a website tracktrace-newzealand.blogspot.com, which asks for a tracking number. This then directs them to another page that claims that the status for the package is pending in Auckland and that a delivery fee of $3.25 has not been paid. Those who click on pay shipping are then re-directed to another website 1superprize.com which asks for the user's details and to pick a payment method.
This can all be in the form of a text message, phone call, email or letter with the specific aim of gaining access to personal or financial information, or exploitation for financial gain. Many scams look genuine and it is often extremely hard to tell that they are fake, as in this case the amount charged is minimal and many people have already fallen fowl to it.
