Fake delivery calls: how to spot the scam!
Summary — +17082602982
Expert Opinion
Like a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat, this number pops up pretending to be a delivery driver or rideshare courier, only to vanish when you answer. The pattern across reports shows repeated claims of fake Uber, Walmart, or grocery notifications that ask for personal or payment info. Treat any unsolicited text or call about an order you didn’t expect as suspicious. Hang up, verify the order directly in the official app, and never share banking details over the phone. Report the number to your carrier and to the FTC, and consider blocking it on your device. Staying skeptical is your best defense.
