Brushing scams occur when individuals receive packages they did not order, often as a tactic used by sellers to boost their ratings. These packages can come from various online retailers, leaving recipients confused about their origin.
If you find yourself receiving a mystery package, it’s essential to remain calm. First, check if the package has any identifying information or receipts that could indicate the sender.
You should also consider reporting the incident to the retailer or platform from which the package originated. They can provide guidance on how to handle the situation and may investigate the seller's practices.
