Fight Fraud

Help Us Prevent Email Fraud

UPS is a global company with one of the most recognized and admired brands in the world. Occasionally, fraudsters take advantage of UPS's reputation by using our name or services to target your personal and sensitive business information. By creating tempting downloads and attractive websites, fraudsters can lure you to links that prompt you to enter sensitive information or download malware -- malicious software such as viruses or spyware. While UPS is not liable for the actions of third parties, we are working to prevent and detect fraud where possible.

If you are ever concerned about the authenticity of an e-mail referencing UPS, do not click on any links or attachments provided.  A deceptive link may be contained within an e-mail that appears to direct your browser to a known, safe site but actually directs your browser to another location, potentially to an unsafe or fraudulent site.  Open a new Web browser, type www.ups.com into your browser address field, and either log in to your Internet shipping account from this page - or use the "search" feature located at the top of the page to access the information you need.
