# No, this is a scam. Delete it.

This is a classic **smishing (SMS phishing)** attempt. Here are the red flags:

## 🚩 Warning signs

1. **The URL is fake** — Look closely: `dhl.com-redelivery.eu` is not a DHL website. The real domain is `dhl.com`. Scammers use tricks like this where the real DHL name appears *before* a different domain (`com-redelivery.eu`).

2. **Tiny fee, big pressure** — A suspiciously small amount (€1.99) makes you think "it's just 2 bucks" so you pay without questioning. They're after your **card details**, not the fee.

3. **Artificial urgency** — "Pay within 24 hours or it will be returned" is designed to make you act without thinking.

4. **Legit DHL doesn't work this way** — Real customs fees are either paid to customs directly, collected on delivery, or handled through DHL's official **On Demand Delivery** portal after logging in — never through a random link in an unsolicited text.

## ✅ What to do

- **Don't click the link**
- **Don't reply** to the message
- **Delete it**
- If you're genuinely expecting a package, check its status on the **official DHL website** (type dhl.com into your browser yourself) or the DHL app
- Report it to your country's anti-fraud service (e.g., in Germany: forward to the phishing reporting hotline; in the US: forward to 7726/SPAM)

## ⚠️ If you already clicked and entered payment details

Contact your bank immediately to block the card and report fraud, and watch for unauthorized charges.
