🔴 Amazon Package Red/Pink Dot Warning
Have you ever seen a red or pink dot on an Amazon package seal?
If yes, this is a very important safety alert you must know!
📦 What is the Pink/Red Dot?
Amazon uses a special mark — a pink or red dot (🔴) — on the seal or label of some parcels to indicate possible tampering. If this dot is visible anywhere on the label or tape, it means the package may have been opened or damaged during transit.
❓ Why Does This Happen?
- Amazon applies tamper-evident seals or security ink that changes color if the package is tampered with.
- If anyone tries to open or reseal the package, the dot appears as a warning sign.
- This helps detect theft, fraud, or damage before the parcel reaches the customer.
🛑 What Should You Do?
If you see a pink/red dot on your Amazon package:
- Do NOT accept the parcel.
- Inform the delivery person immediately.
- Take a photo of the package for evidence.
- Contact Amazon customer care through the app or website.
- Request a replacement or refund — Amazon will support you if the item was tampered with.
🕒 When Did This Rule Become Active?
This tamper detection system has been in place since mid-2023, and Amazon has increased its use in 2024–2025 as part of enhanced delivery safety protocols. Not all packages have this feature, but more are expected to include it going forward.
✅ Conclusion: Stay Safe When Shopping Online
Always check your Amazon parcels before accepting them. A simple dot can save you from receiving a tampered or empty box.
