A new attempt to defraud by sending an e-mail using the name of the Cyprus Post office was recently observed, as shown below.
The points you should pay attention to in order to find that the lower communication does NOT come from the Cyprus Post:
- The sending address of the e-mail is not XXXXXXXX@cypruspost.post
- The word in Greek comes from automatic translation
- The object number is not real (check that you are actually expecting an object)
- Cyprus Post will not return an item or deliver an item because no duties/taxes were paid
- Payments are not directed to JCCSmart's online payment platform.
