The DHL text message scam below, which asks recipients to download an application or ".apk" file to track their parcel, is a scam. DHL will never ask the public to download a ".apk" file, they would instead, ask them to download their application from the Google Play Store. Downloading a ".apk" file is dangerous because it bypasses Google Play Store's security that helps protect mobile users from downloading malicious apps.
