Agree. Lol. How about you just throw it away like all junk mail and be done with it. The FBI isnt wasting their time on one letter.

Go talk to Seniors Vs Crime. They have a few offices around the Villages. They will take the info and contact the appropriate authorities.

My earlier post was to shred it and move on.
There’s a false narrative that Postal Inspectors or USPS Police have great numbers of officers like other Federal or quasi government agencies....they don’t. Get ready to hurry up and wait. On the scale of scams....this doesn’t even rise to a priority level. Just be proud of yourself that you paused and didn’t take the bait. Enjoy the confetti from the shredder!

Contact the post office that services your mail (not the postal station, the one your zip code is at). They will contact the USPS Postal Inspectors who handle these as Federal felony cases. United States Postal Inspection Service – Protecting you and everyone the post reaches.
