USPS Phishing Texts

1 pointslicktux2 comments

I’ve noticed that when I’m expecting a package from USPS I get phishing texts…and only when I’m expecting a package from them. It’s quite strange and I’ve not looked into it…maybe their backend is rooted or pure coincidence?? Anyone else notice this happening to you? The texts are quite sloppy and obviously fake…

I rarely get packages, so spam and phishing are obvious.

You can report spam to spam@uspis.gov

And phishing to CyberSafe@usps.gov

Informed delivery lets you know via email when letters and packages due to arrive shortly. (usually with snapshot)
