Now people are pretending to be the Post Office! Anyone else seeing these?


An image from 'New to me, Scam!'. Email claims a USPS package is held and prompts scheduling redelivery via link.

Rest assured that you are not alone. It is an international type of scam.

All kinds of these mails, blocking email addresses wont help.
Using outlook, I report it to being phishing mail.
Using webmail with the Edge browser you can inspect the source of the mail and you may see where the links you really want to direct to.

It seems to me that spoofing the post office might get you in trouble with the government, but I guess if you can do Amazon and my bank anything is possible. I never click on anything any more.
