Scam Description
I received a text that the USPS tried to deliver a package but the address was incorrect. I clicked the link and it took me to a page that looked exactly like the USPS website so I entered my name, address, and email address. It then took me to a page asking for a $3 redelivery fee. At this point I searched the tracking number they included at the top and realized it didn’t exist. I also realized the url domain was not the USPS website so I knew it was a scam. I didn’t pay them, but they have my name email and address now. Also when I googled the USPS redelivery fee, a few articles alerted me that the real USPS does not charge a redelivery fee.
