I have just had the same text msg but our driver was called John from 07593 868396, thing is I was expecting a parcel today also, so checked my email for the tracking info and this is coming for DPD not royal mail so I know this is now a scam, please be careful!
I got one to reschedule a delivery and drivers name is Adam from this number 07516426901. I was also expecting a delivery anytime this week I clicked the link almost got myself in a hot mess before I went over to check my inbox if the royal mail sent any emails confirming this text. That’s when I figured it was scam and googled it and I found this page confirming my suspicions. Yeah everyone be cautious just don’t give way your credentials like that, I almost did.
