[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1082118, member: 99014"] Websites like these come and go on hourly bases and the following practices will serve best at preventing their malice: [LIST] [*]Think whether you are expecting a package. Did you order something or did someone sent anything from abroad? If not, then ignore the SMS. [*]If you are expecting a package, rarely will a carrier want anything from you. When they do (for example customs clearance), they will send a branded email that will include personal details as well as letter by post. Majority of times, package management and tracking is the merchant’s responsibility and not yours — you are responsible for a purchase only after receiving it. [*]Does it even look legit? This info domain doesn’t resemble a carrier website at all. [*]Consider deploying a block for newly-registered domains, there are loads of topics about NextDNS, ControlD and other services here that can do it, [USER=109138]@Practical Response[/USER] has deployed Suricata IPS with a NRD list. This is the best defence as a site like this wouldn’t last 30 days. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
