formariz 11,924 #1 Posted November 13, 2022 (edited) I received a text from USPS saying that my package could not be delivered because of an incorrect address. It asks to fill all kinds of information. Of course I did not do so and instead logged in to my USPS account using the legitimate site. Tracking number is not a legitimate one ,entire text is fraudulent. Edited November 13, 2022 by formariz 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,205 #2 Posted November 13, 2022 @formariz yes you have to pay attention to detailing on anything today , scammer's are looking for any opportunity to get your stuff. quickly divert away from an obvious attempt to get you , just enough time will lock up your set up , have my electrical connection on a singular quick disconnect , that stops all of it . then go back in and run a security check , on your service . shame we have been at that state for a while now , regular look around helps keep things up to date , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
formariz 11,924 #3 Posted November 13, 2022 The message through text was a dead give away. USPS does not text me. I have a legitimate account with all kinds of alerts but they do not have my phone number. They only communicate through email. Link on message was also fake since it would not open anything the way it should . It only accepted input of information. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 7,591 #4 Posted November 13, 2022 I get a bunch of bogus emails from Lowe's, Amazon, etc. telling my package I ORDERED (that I did not) is ready for pickup, with "confirmation info", of course. The second line says that if I did not place the order to fill out more "confirmation info".... NOT !! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

formariz 11,924 #7 Posted November 15, 2022 A very interesting fact is that I get these when in fact I am expecting a delivery through USPS. It seems that they know that. I wonder how? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
