Defending Against Internet Fraud
PACK & SEND is an international company with a trusted brand servicing customers for over 20 years. Occasionally, people take advantage of
PACK & SEND's reputation by using our name or services to mislead internet shoppers. The fraudulent communications typically are a request for advance electronic transfer of money to pay for goods ordered on the internet, before the goods will be allegedly delivered by
PACK & SEND.
Please note that
PACK & SEND does not request, via unsolicited mail or e-mail any payment or personal information in return for goods in transit or in
PACK & SEND's custody.
While
PACK & SEND is not liable for the fraudulent actions of third parties, we are working to prevent and detect fraud where possible. Our customer service and legal departments work closely together to inform our customers of these scams and take them down - and we also co-operate with international organisations to help prevent these scams.

PACK & SEND, when in reality they are operated by criminals attempting to commit theft. Some fraudulent websites may have a look and feel of a legitimate

Emails Fraudulently Using the PACK & SEND Name or Brand
Fraudulent e-mail messages (referred to as "phishing" or "spoofing") are becoming more common and may appear legitimate by incorporating company brands, colours, or other legal disclaimers. It is easy for criminals to impersonate email addresses which may appear as having been sent from a legitimate
PACK & SEND email account. This does not mean that our corporate email systems have been hacked or compromised.

What to do if you think you have been a victim

fraudalert@packsend.com.au.
Further, we advise you to report the case with the local police. There have been instances that have resulted in arrests.
Please note, that in these instances
PACK & SEND's name and identity is being used fraudulently. Whilst we sympathise with anyone who may have lost money in this way,
PACK & SEND cannot accept any responsibility for any costs or charges incurred as a result of fraudulent activity.
