The Sophisticated Fraudster is back. Did you get a suspicious text about your mail, asking you to click a link? Careful, that might be a tricky scam.

Have never received one like that
Thanks for reading, Frances!
I received tons of supposed real messages from the postal service this summer when I ordered things from eBay, sometimes one per day. They looked so legitimate, even the logo was so accurate that you couldn’t tell if it was real or not. I never clicked on the link but finally went to the post office and showed the text to them. They said to delete them, never click on the link, and that they wouldn’t even have people’s phone numbers to text them. They also said that the logo in the texts I had were the most accurate they had ever seen. Don’t believe it, I didn’t!
Thanks for reading our blog, Michael!
I was shocked to see fraudulent texts… my work educates us on “phishing scams”, and I have learned a lot. Never click on links, sign in through their app. Slow down take a minute … it could save u a lot of headaches in the future
