To warn you about this very convincing vinted scam

I got an email yesterday saying evri were unable to deliver my vinted parcel (looked just like normal evri message). I thought was a bit weird as the newsagent had a different name.

Then today received a text saying there was a small exrra charge to pay on my parcel.

Just googled and its a scam to get your payment details. It would have been super easy to fall for.

Only realised as a hadn't ordered anything this week. 🤭

I very nearly fell for that too, it is very convincing.

Thanks for the warning. I sometimes think Vinted have handed over your details to plenty 3rd parties'.
