Watch out for any text that promises an unexpected e‑transfer and demands a reply like "info" or a small fee. These messages typically aim to harvest personal data or trick you into paying a bogus charge. Never click links or share details, and verify directly with your bank or the alleged sender using official contact channels. If a notice mentions customs fees for UPS, treat it as a red flag—UPS never requests payment via text. Block the number, report it to your carrier, and consider filing a complaint with the FTC to help curb these scams.
