Back to Delivery Reward Scam

This is a version of Delivery Reward Scam.

✅ups✅ 'Out for Delivery' Email Linking to Cash Reward Survey

Victim received an email claiming a package was out for delivery. The message included a link that opened a UPS‑branded page offering up to $100 for completing a short survey, with a red countdown clock to rush the decision. After the survey, the page encouraged clicking “ACCEPT” and led toward entering personal details and payment info to claim the reward.

What’s different in this version

These traits set this message apart from the usual pattern.

  1. Uses “out for delivery” wording to make the email feel time‑sensitive.

  2. Links to a non‑UPS domain (rapidopinionpay.com) while showing UPS logos and colors.

  3. Promises a cash reward and displays a countdown clock to pressure quick action.

  4. Sender email is from hairionpictures.de, not an official UPS address.

  5. Heavy emoji/checkmarks in subject line to grab attention and seem friendly.

How this scam works

  1. 1

    Step 1: You get an email or text that looks like a delivery notice with a link to ‘track,’ ‘confirm,’ or ‘reschedule’ a package.

  2. 2

    Step 2: The link opens a brand‑themed page offering a cash or gift reward if you take a short survey. A timer may count down to create urgency.

  3. 3

    Step 3: After the survey, the site asks for your name, address, and a credit/debit card to pay a small fee or ‘verify identity.’

  4. 4

    Step 4: Scammers may make unauthorized charges, enroll you in a subscription, or collect your personal details for future scams.

✓ Do this

  • Go directly to the carrier’s website by typing it yourself (for example: ups.com, usps.com, fedex.com, dhl.com, royalmail.com) or use the official app.
  • Use a tracking number you already have from a real order or the retailer’s order history.
  • If you weren’t expecting a package, treat the message as suspicious until you confirm with the sender or retailer.
  • Report suspicious delivery messages to the carrier’s fraud page and delete them.

✗ Avoid this

  • Do not click links, scan QR codes, or call phone numbers in unexpected delivery messages.
  • Do not enter card numbers or personal details to claim a ‘reward’ or pay a surprise ‘fee.’ Real carriers don’t offer cash prizes for deliveries.
  • Do not trust countdown timers, emojis, or pushy language designed to make you act quickly.
  • Do not assume a logo or colors mean the site is real—check the web address carefully.
