07RS4 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Anyone ever get this email? I got one on Friday, and also today. I'm almost certain I have nothing on order from anyone, but with the new baby, you never know when someone is sending you something. I'm afraid to open the attachment, and the Hotmail filter is throwing it right to junk. Thoughts? Dear Customer, The delivery service couldn’t deliver your package. The package weight exceeds the allowable free-delivery limit. You have to receive your packagen personally. Print out the "Invoice Copy" attached and collect the package at our office. Please read carefully the attached information before receiving your package. Thank you. FedEx Logistics Services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

07RS4 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 Thats what I'm thinking...off to the "Mark as Phishing Scam" bin. I don't know what the hell that does, but I do it anyway with all junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Mitchell Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 If you open the attachment with the e-mail it will infect your computer with a virus. Check it out on Google. I get one of these every few weeks. They also use the same type message with UPS and the postal service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueGenCoupe Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I get them all the time....I dont even open it, I just delete them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07RS4 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 Thanks guys...yeah, these are the first ones I've gotten. I never even thought about googling it. They've been deleted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egott_91 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yup, I receive them and they got straight to my spam folder. I don't even bother opening them because I know they're BS and a scam/virus waiting to happen so they get deleted instantly. Also, if someone was trying to send you something, they would be the ones receiving the email since their email would be the one provided when they ordered, not yours.

Chuckkilo3 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Those types of emails prey on people that are curious and/or careless. I get many of those emails in my Yahoo Spam folder every month. I have yet to open a single one. Why? Because I know when I ordered something and know how to keep track of what I ordered. It went to your junk folder for a reason.

Two things I see wrong with what you just said. I get plenty of emails to my spam folder that are good emails, it happens all the time. Also, I've gotten emails from when my dad ordered something for me, and he's put in my email address before instead of his at checkout. Why does he do that, IDK, but it made me think for a second that he, or one of my relatives had sent me something for the baby. Especially since recently he said he was going to make me a crib, and "check" into the cost of shipping it for me. Again, after googling it, I deleted and flagged them. I never opened them. Thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 My Chiro got it and opened it on his laptop at home and it crashed. He didn't put two and two together and went to the office and did it again! lol Thankfully it was repairable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
