On Your Side: USPS warns of text scam that could cost you your identity

[Reciter]

I've been getting these for a while. Every time I block them I get a text again from a different number. It's annoying!

[kanekozlowski]

I just got this. I sent them a picture of my hairy butt hole

[nickreyes]

Since this is USPS, wouldn't it be considered a federal crime??

[SusieJesus]

I just got this text and thank God this video is out here! Thank You🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I got this today… the same day my actual package was supposed to be out for delivery. I decided to check the tracking on the site I bought the item from and it was already delivered to my mailbox. I am so glad I didn’t fall for it. And I almost did bc the timing was just SO perfect almost like they knew I was expecting a delivery.

[rationallyright]

This is why I don't click on random links sent to me....

I literally got one this morning, and I’m so grateful I figured out it was a scam before I could submit my information to total strangers

I just got one of these on Saturday, I didn’t really read it and immediately deleted and reported it as junk!

I've been getting this text everyday and with different numbers my phone is protected where I block spam and calls and still receive it plus i dont clink the link

USPS put a notice on my door, lost the letter I supposedly had (from the IRS), and wanted my phone number incase they found it. 🙄 I didnt give it. They can deliver the letter to me.

I definitely had one of these. These people are desperate for me to fall for the scam. They even added to me to a tracking group. Phone companies need to fix this as soon as possible.

I just got this text the other day. I ignored it, deleted it and reported it spam.

[azsegrxdhtfgvijnkomlewrhtg]

That makes no sense. I already paid shipping costs when I bought the item and why would I give them my social security number? Also if they're claiming incomplete address information and I know I gave them the exact address then that's their mistake. Why would I pay extra for a mistake they made?

[Cartooony]

Just almost got hit with this scam a minute ago. Thanks!

[Randomonium]

I get a text from a different number every day, I guess forever...kinda bullshit, and super pathetic, I'd never fall for something with a clearly fake url

[soniarena]

I got the text this morning at 6:58 am. The link is included, but it is not a hyperlink so I had to put the address in the search bar. When I entered the address on my work computer it said that this is a dangerous site. That is when I searched and found this video. I have to packages that should be arriving today, one that is expensive, so the text seemed legitimate.

[vincentmartinez]

I just blocked the number after i saw the text felt risky event opening it to block the number

[azsegrxdhtfgvijnkomlewrhtg]

The funny thing is after I got this scam message USPS ended up sending my package back for no reason. That's when I learned USPS takes no accountability for their mistakes. USPS sucks.

[kaylaphillips]

yea i had to delete my cards cuz fail for it

[carmensandoval]

I just got a text message like that:(

This video just safe me from this scammer 🙏

Love videos like this ❤️
