The delivery driver was working at that time, why wasn’t the receptionist!?

edit: Thanks to everyone who’s pointed out that this is a scam - and who gave advice/or worried about me. I was half asleep this morning, it didn’t click (though I did notice that the url wasn’t evri - I’m too used to vendors passing me over to third party websites). It doesn’t help that the evri helpline is robots only. No bank details lost though.

      Honestly, its not the cost of delivery. Its that the delivery driver is working at 1:43 am, and that a charge is levied for not being available at this time. Not everyone sleeps at night, but with no warning, I have to reschedule my life to be at my desk at 2am for something I bought? Even if this were delivered to a home address - ringing the doorbell at 2am is shitty.

        I doubt they actually attempted the delivery at this time. I’ve had multiple evri drivers mark that they attempted delivery and no one was in when I have been there waiting for them to knock.

        Trash company, trash employees.

        It looks like the email is a scam! Be careful! Definitely don’t recommend putting your info in there.

        Here’s a source, and it pretty accurately describes the email you’re seeing:

        https://malwaretips.com/blogs/evrievri-notes-com-parcel-delivery-scam/#:~:text=This scam is essentially a,identity theft and financial fraud.

        Excerpt:

        The email prompts you to click on a link to resolve the delivery problem, but the link actually directs to a sophisticated fake Evri website. On this phishing site, victims are asked to enter personal details like name, address, phone number, and even credit card information to pay a “re-delivery fee.”

        I understand my post was not confusing. I was questioning why you need to pay twice for a service…

        That the delivery was scheduled at that time is a whole other level. Crazy stuff!

      Simping for awful companies with awful business practices is one of the weirdest things to come out of the internet.

        Maybe give me the benefit of doubt and don’t interpret things? I meant that the service was already paid for by the sender and now somebody has to pay again? Seems strange to me at least…
