If you open your front door to find a package addressed to you, but you didn't order it and it is from someone or a company you don't know - beware! This seemingly free item is a "brushing" scam. Brushing scammers send you goods you never ordered and write fake online reviews about their products in your name, which helps boost their sales.

By law, unsolicited merchandise is yours to keep. You don't have to return it - or pay for it! But some of these "gifts" come with a QR code. When scanned, these QR codes direct to "quishing" websites that ask you to give up your personal information.
