ComReg has become aware of fraudulent emails purporting to come from An Post, with the subject line \u201cLast Reminder: \u201cYour package could not be delivered on [specified date] because no customs duty was paid (\u20ac1.00)\u201d” and a ComReg.ie email address (consumerline@comreg.ie<\/a>).\u00a0 The email contains an An Post logo in the body of the email.<\/p>\n

Some of these seek personal information from consumer and\/or seek credit card, debit card or bank account details in connection with an undelivered package.<\/p>\n

These emails did not issue from ComReg (consumerline@comreg.ie<\/a>).\u00a0 ComReg would never ask for personal financial details in such a manner.<\/p>\n

Anyone who receives an email purporting to be from ComReg and suspects it to be fraudulent or a scam should simply delete it. Anyone who is actually awaiting a response from ComReg customer care should contact ComReg via (consumerline@comreg.ie<\/a>) to check its status.<\/p>\n

Anyone who provided personal information in response to these fraudulent emails should contact their bank or credit card company immediately.<\/p>\n
