I received a text asking to visit 'mypayment.dhl.ca to pay in advance to expedite delivery.  
It is a small custom fee but would you trust click on it or is it some sort of scam once I click it will get whatever information they want from me? I do not know why it came on a text message I do not remember giving my phone number to order.  
I made a few orders in the last 8 days and the message doesn't say which order.

This happened to me when ordering a shipment from USA via DHL, you can go to

type in your tracking number and itll say if you owe taxes/duty on it and pay in advance

I typed the address into Google. Looks legit to me.  
 
Phone numbers are a legal requirement for across border shipments. Not always enforced, but, they have your #.

I never trust any email that says click here, especially ones for account information or payment. I always go to the applicable website direct and if it's legit then the request for information or payment will be there. If it's not legit then I have not given information I shouldn't have.

I order weekly and the link allows you to pay securely through pay pal or whatever. Saves the hassle of scrounging for cash when the delivery shows up. Save the receipt you get in case the drier needs to see it.

it is not an email I received it was a text message named 34522. I had never placed an order that asked my phone number so how they figure out my number to text me why not by email which how I receive a email confirmation receipt.  
All kind of crooks that figure out how to get you so is it one of them. If the website is legit well again how to know they can make it look legit.
