Yeah I just phoned dhl and they confirmed the call, I personally think dhl are the worst delivery company there is there tracking and delivery times and charges are terrible, personally I'll only use dpd or paisley freight whenever possible and I'll actually pay a bit more for an item on site that uses dpd over a cheaper one that uses dhl, with dpd order before 9pm u get it next day with a one hour time slot, using dhl is just a gamble imo,

This is a genuine notification of vat charges on clothes purchased from Sweden. When you get the text or email you pay dhl portal online. This is not a scam just another reason why uk shouldn’t left the eu.

Female Asian voice claiming to be from DHL, advising of a £42 Customs fee. Said it was just a courtesy call and when I queried why, she hung up. When I checked my BT account for recent calls in order to blacklist the number, it was listed not with the 1494 number but with the number of the last person that called a few days ago. Was this a BT listing error or some sort of sophisticated spoofing of BT's Recent Callers list?

Trying to get money or account details by voice call? Best not to engage with them. If it was indeed some courier, they would at least be able to send a recognisable letter/document to your address or have information or their online website.

Told me they were from DHL and they are holding a package as I owed over £45 for import duties. Knew it was a scam I've been getting emails as well from DHL but I delete them as they are spam.

Chinese sounding lady saying from DHL I think said something about import taxes, but was a very distorted line. Gave a reference number but didn't match what I received recently (DHL)! I think someone, somewhere along the line, is getting hold of some information, perhaps by flooding the DHL website with combinations of letters/numbers, or getting some info at the source, and then passing it to whichever country is the destination to elicit fraud. I wouldn't ever pay over the phone like this. I've checked the DHL link I was given by the supplier, and there is absolutely NO mention of any import duty, but that it cleared customs at Bristol. Be wary...
