Postal Scam

[Figmo Bohica]

Received a card in the mail today, telling me to call an 800 number to schedule a pick up of a package from Whitehouse, TX. Had tracking number looked quite official.

Called and talked to USPS Postal Inspectors and complaint complaint from. They think it is a scam and when you call the 800 number you will get a huge phone bill. If you get a green card from:

Package Services
PO Box 820
Whitehouse, TX 75791

Go online and let USPS Inspectors know that you also got one.

I have never ordered anything from this company, we have to be careful looks like a good way to get into our wallets through the phone company.

Do you know if this works from a Cell? I remember hearing they couldn't get you from a cell. Do you know?

[Figmo Bohica]

Don't know, but I would not call from my cell just to be on the safe side. You might want to call your provider of cell service and see what they say.

Funny!! I got the same green postcard today. Looked like a scam with a package waiting for me with a tracking number. I threw it away cause I know that I didn't order anything. Will follow your advice and fish it out of the garbage and contact the USPS.

Be careful everyone.

I meant just in case someone did call from a cell...

DUH.... I know I'm blond... But I'm not going to call them after reading this!! :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Google the number. A page will probably come up with others telling about the scam. Let us know what you find.

angiefox10, remember dear heart, we have our own scam going, 1-800-Hot-Babe.

BTW, do you know the difference between, sexual harrassment and phone sex?

I did the 411.com thing and all that comes up from the reverse number search is number can not be found. That was when I called the USPS Postal Inspector number and they told me to fill out the form so that they (USPS Inspectors) can start whatever it is they do.

[CaptJohn]

Google it. You should get more options.

I received one of these a few weeks ago. I called seniors vs. crime. They knew about this scam and informed me what not to do.

Thanks for posting this as I will be the look-out for it.

I usually throw this type of mail away as I know I didn't order anything. If I get it, I will contact the postmaster and lodge a complaint.
