Has anyone else received these spam emails entitled "UPS Delivery Problem"? I've received quite a few and always delete them without opening them up. What the heck are they? |

I have and FedEx also I just deleted, then finally spammed them, I am sure it's a scam or worse a virus so I like you never opened them! I
know if I order something I get a tracking number from the company and keep tabs in it that way.
They always come up with a new way to tweak our nerves don't they?

I've had loads and contacted UPS about them and they confirmed that they were hoaxes. Usually the attachment has a virus which when you open does your machine in. So your right to keep deleting them.
I seem to recall UPS said something that if there was every a problem posting, they would never email an attachment, but post a card through the letterbox or send an email (with no attachment). Forgot to mention that till I saw this thread! |

What's a dead give away for me when I check email on the iPhone they say before being opened this message has no content, It has the option to preview the first few lines of a message prior to reading and that's a big help! |

Thanks everyone - I thought they might be a virus or something - but then I order allot of stuff from overseas and wasn't sure if I should be opening them.
They will all be promptly deleted now. |
