Purchased an item from Germany that is being shipped DHL express. Item value about $60 CAD. Received an email from DHL requiring me to pay customs fees of $33 (13 duties, 20 fee). Not thrilled about it but whatever. All i ever hear is never click on links in emails and enter personal info, in this case my payment info, yet there doesn't seem to be any other way to pay the Customs fees i owe, i.e. on DHL's website. Is there a way that i am missing or is the email the only option? And is there any way to pay DHL with Paypal instead of directly with a card, that way i don't have to enter any card information online at all. I'm pretty certain the email is ligit but i still don't like enttering payment info online if i can avoid it.
