Got scammed via COD parcel (Shadowfax) – paid ₹460 for stones?
So this happened today morning.
I was asleep when a Shadowfax delivery guy came with a COD parcel worth ₹460. Since I often order stuff online, my mom assumed it was mine and paid for it.
When I woke up, I checked the package and realized I NEVER ordered anything like this.
The label shows:
- No proper sender name
- Generic product: “Mobile Cleaning Spray”
- Fake-looking invoice
- Only Shadowfax mentioned (logistics)
I haven’t opened the parcel yet, but after shaking it, it literally feels like it contains stones or some junk.
This looks like a clear COD scam where random packages are sent hoping someone pays.
Already tagged Shadowfax and their CEO on Twitter.
Just posting this here so others are aware:
PLEASE don’t accept COD orders unless you are 100% sure.
If anyone has faced this before or knows if refund/reverse pickup is possible, let me know.
