BOGUS DELIVERY MESSAGES E-MAILED TO
POSTAL CUSTOMERS
Some postal customers are receiving bogus e-mails about a package delivery. The e-mails
contain a link that, when opened, installs a malicious virus that can steal personal information
from your PC.
The e-mails claim to be from the U.S. Postal Service and contain fraudulent information about an
attempted or intercepted package delivery. You are instructed to click on a link to find out when
you can expect your delivery. But Postal Inspectors warn: Do not click on the link!
Like most viruses sent by e-mail, clicking on the link will activate a virus that can steal
information—such as your user name, password, and financial account information.
What to do? Simply delete the message without taking any further action. The Postal Inspection
Service is working hard to resolve the issue and shut down the malicious program.
If you have questions about a suspicious postal email or wish to report spam, contact the
Postal Inspection Service at [email protected].

i would say do not open any attachment that you are unsure of or do not know actually where it came from. i can always go to the usps.com site to check my account status if i have questions but if the post office was to send me an email about a package delivery, i would think first that it was bogus. i open very few email attachments unless i know where they came from. be aware as there are so many scams out there.

You are sooo welcome! There is so much chocolate flying around these days that I think I should just take out a couple of pieces and apply to each hip!
