I am curious about the voice phishing types that occur frequently these days.

Voice phishing is becoming increasingly sophisticated, so knowing in advance the voice phishing types that occur frequently these days and responding to them is more important than anything else.

Representative methods include impersonating a financial institution to demand the entry of account information or card numbers, impersonating the prosecution, the police, or the Financial Supervisory Service to demand personal information or funds under the pretext of involvement in a crime, and impersonating the National Tax Service, the National Health Insurance Service, and the like to demand account information on the grounds of a refund.

In addition, as in the case you asked about, a type that impersonates the post office or a courier company and demands a resident registration number or financial information on the grounds of a delivery problem is also occurring very frequently.

Beyond these, a characteristic of recent voice phishing types is that they are evolving into various forms, such as demands for urgent transfers under the pretense of a child's kidnapping or accident, demands for personal information using a university admission deposit or a prize as bait, and requests for transfers by impersonating an acquaintance through a messenger.

If you have suffered voice phishing, it is very important to promptly carry out initial responses without delay, such as requesting a suspension of account payments and reporting to the police, in order to prevent the spread of the damage.
