Scam Description
Received text that said “Package Tracking: Your package is on hold and cannot be delivered due to incorrect address. pls submit an updated address: https://is.gd/zUtR4A” This brought me to usps-hd.com, an identical USPS website. It requested for address verification and phone number and then said redelivery fee is $0.30 and to enter credit card info. This was an identical process to USPS and I would have thought it was real except the tracking number is not a legitimate USPS tracking number. It started with US and I have never been charged for a real redelivery before. Extremely convincing.
