As I’ve reported before, I’ve received several phishing
expeditions that use the USPS
and FedEx
as clickbait. So the other day when I found this in my queue I just thought,
gee, another one:
It did occur to me that the spammers had improved their corporate
plagiarism techniques, as well as their verisimilitude-oriented detail (like
the tracking number). And then I realized that, hey—this actually was a general UPS email for a genuine
UPS shipment.
(In fact, it was my new DVR box from Comcast.)
It is indeed a sad state of affairs, however, when your
first response to getting pretty much any kind of “parcel-delivery”
notification is to hit the delete button.
