Scamming - Fraud
I got a couple of fake text messages from 0 868 14 50 58 with caller ID display names of Eyeverify, EireVerify, and Eire Verify. The fake texts, which are scams, claim my so-called parcel has been held at a shipping centre and I should click the link in them. If you follow the link (you should not do this) in the text messages, you will be taken to a website where you will be asked to pay €1.99. If personal and financial information is submitted on the same website, it will be stolen by the cybercriminals behind the fake and scam text messages.
"Hi there - Your parcel has been held at our shipping centre. Please follow instructions here: 2vc.me/WlwKX -> hxxps://package.universalpackagesystem.club/".

Got a call from 353578677497, which I presume is a scam. How do I find out whether it is or not? Did not answer the call
You will have to answer the call and here what is being said, in order to determine if it is a scam or not.
Literally just got one sent to me there
Just got the message 10 minutes ago. Click the link, didn't send any info and block the contact. The link was sending me to an auction website...
HI, I got a text today which coincided with me waiting on a parcel. I put it my address sncc dk phone number but couldn't go any further thankfully. Am I safe or do I need to contact my bank?
You only need to contact your bank if you had submitted your credit card and other financial information.
