Learn how to protect yourself

Phishing is a fraudulent technique used to trick you into giving away your personal data.

If you're in doubt,  don't risk it - just close the message.

Our platforms:

On sales and resale platforms such as Marketplace, Vinted and others, not every buyer has good intentions. If you start a conversation, keep these tips in mind to protect yourself:

  • Never let the buyer set the rules.
    
You are the one selling, you decide how you want to be paid.
  • Never let anyone intimidate you.
  • Never let yourself be rushed or forced into anything. If it feels urgent, it’s most likely a scam.
  • Never share sensitive informations (PIN, card number etc.) in reply to a message, even if it seems to come from bpost.
  • Never click on links sent by a buyer: they might redirect you to a fake website.

👉 Clicked by mistake?
Never enter your PIN, even if the site looks legitimate.

If in doubt, contact your bank immediately.

  • Check the e-mail address behind the name

    All bpost e-mail addresses end with bpost.be.

    Examples of valid addresses

    noreply @ bpost.be
    noreply @ communication.bpost.be
    mail @ news-mail.bpost.be
    mail @ ops-mail.bpost.be

    Examples of fraudulent addresses

    noreply @ news-mail-bpost.be
    noreply @ communication.b.post.be
    mail @ news-mail.bpost.be.gmail.com
    mail @ ops-mail.b-post.be

  • Don't give in to pressure or threats

    bpost will never try to pressure or threaten you. We will never send messages like:

    • ‘Pay now’
    • ‘You only have 24 hours left to… ‘
    • ‘If you don't, you risk… ‘
  • Be alert before you click

    
bpost links typically start with:

    • https: // communication.bpost.be
    • https: // public-eur.mkt.dynamics.com/api/orgs/bc7e9d15
    • https: // parcel.bpost.be

    • https: // track.bpost.cloud

    Tip: check the link address

    Hover your mouse over the link - or tap and hold the link on a touchscreen - to see the full web address.
