Kiwis are being warned to be vigilant with a new scam posing as a courier package alert to unsuspecting "customers".

People have received a text message saying there has been an attempt to deliver a parcel to the recipient's address. The scammers then direct them to a website which asks for the tracking number they provided, and the payment of a $3.25 delivery fee. The scammers then have credit card and personal details.

Police advise to ignore the message and let family and friends know - especially the elderly and vulnerable. If you believe you're a target of a scam, report it to Netsafe's Orb immediately.
