How Hongkong Post phishing works
Phishing against Hongkong Post follows patterns common to shipping & delivery. Typical lures:
- A text saying a package could not be delivered and asking for a small "redelivery fee".
- An email with a tracking number that links to a cloned tracking page.
- A notice that your address is incomplete and the parcel will be returned.
- A customs or duty payment request for a parcel you were not expecting.
Red flags
- Real carriers do not ask for card details by text link to release a package.
- The tracking link goes to a lookalike domain instead of the carrier's official site.
- You were not expecting a parcel, or the tracking number does not exist on the official tracker.
Real Hongkong Post domains
If the address in your browser is not one of these (or a subdomain of them), it is not Hongkong Post. The list is not exhaustive.
hongkongpost.hkIf you already clicked or entered details
Do not enter more details. If you paid, call your card issuer to cancel the card and dispute the charge. Check any real parcel by typing the carrier's address into your browser and entering the tracking number there.
Protecting a brand like Hongkong Post from lookalike domains
If you run security, brand or fraud for a company that is copied this way, this is the order that works in practice:
- Enforce DMARC. Move your policy to quarantine, then reject, so attackers cannot send mail that passes as your domain.
- Watch new registrations. Lookalikes appear daily; the earlier you see one, the sooner you can act, ideally before the first email goes out.
- Register the obvious typos and keyword variants you can afford to hold, and check which lookalikes are already registered by someone else.
- Report fast. A live fake needs a request to the registrar and host, plus a report to browser safe-browsing lists and the public feeds shown above.
- Tell your customers where you will and will not ask for logins, codes or payments.
