Dan Murphy's shopping scam message examples
Example scam messages
Subject: Your $100 Dan Murphy's voucher is waiting. Dear Member, log in to your rewards account at danmurphys-member-rewards[.]example to add the voucher to your wallet before it expires tonight.
What gives it away:
- The 'log in' page is a lookalike built to capture your Dan Murphy's password; real rewards are visible when you sign in at danmurphys.com.au yourself
- No actual order or membership number appears anywhere, and even a real-looking one can be quoted by scammers; check your account instead
- A voucher expiring 'tonight' is a manufactured deadline, not how member offers work
Dan Murphy's Customer Care: We have flagged a suspicious order on your account. Verify it was you at danmurphys-order-check[.]example or your account will be suspended.
What gives it away:
- A sender name or number can't show whether a text is real, because scammers can fake both; judge what it asks, and check your account in the app or at danmurphys.com.au
- The suspension threat exists to make you tap first and think later
- Checking is free the safe way: open the Dan Murphy's app or type danmurphys.com.au and look at your actual orders
A social media post promises a steep members-only Dan Murphy's discount for completing a short survey. The final step at dm-survey-discount[.]example asks for your Dan Murphy's email and password 'to apply the discount to your account'.
What gives it away:
- A survey that ends in a login request is credential theft dressed as market research
- A real promotion should be visible inside the app or on danmurphys.com.au; a survey link that ends in a login request is credential theft
- A discount that seems too generous to be real is doing exactly the job it was designed for

Frequently asked questions
Is this Dan Murphy's message real or a scam?

How can I tell a fake Dan Murphy's message from a genuine one?
Dan Murphy's orders, click-and-collect details and member rewards can be checked by logging in at danmurphys.com.au or in the Dan Murphy's app, so check there instead of trusting the sender name, number or link. The examples below break down the tells that give a fake away — unexpected links, urgency, and requests for payment or details. If anything asks you to click a link or hand over information, treat it as suspicious until you've verified it independently.
What should I do if I already clicked a link or paid?
