Another Email scam
I got this in my email today. I almost opened it because I had just sent a parcel post package. This was different than other USPS notices I get, so I tracked the package using the real USPS system. It is moving through the system normally. This is an attempt to get me to open a file.
Our company’s courier couldn’t make the delivery of package. REASON: Postal code contains an error. DELIVERY STATUS: Sort Order SERVICE: One-day Shipping NUMBER OF YOUR PARCEL: USPS53613224 FEATURES: No Label is enclosed to the letter in .doc format. Print a label and show it at your post office. An additional information: You can find the information about the procedure and conditions of parcels keeping in the nearest office. Thank you for using our services.

The grammar is always a dead give away.

I get them all the time. They are supposed to be from FedEx, UPS and USPS. Unless it is from a shipped I know I ordered something from I just delete them.
I got one yesterday that was sneaky. It really looked like it was from Apple and had a link to go to verify my Apple iTunes account. The email was from a Suddenlink.net email account. I deleted it and went to Apple from my bookmark, logged in and changed my password to something new just to be paranoid.

I got one too. The only time USPS is used is when I buy Pelican Parts, and I hadn't bought anything for a while. So I didn't open it.
