Scamming - Fraud
The "Verify your Shipping Address" email message below, which appears as if it was sent by FedEx, claiming that the recipients' postal package was unable to be delivered because the address is incorrect, is a phishing scam. The fake email message was sent by cybercriminals and not by FedEx, to trick the recipients into clicking on the link within it, which will take them to a malicious or compromised website, where they will be asked to download and install viruses and malware disguised as a document. The recipients may also be taken to a phishing website that steals account credentials, credit card, and personal information.
Recipients of the fake email message (see below), who were tricked into clicking on the link within it, should change their online account passwords and scan their computers or mobile devices for viruses and malware.

They claimed it was Amazon for me! Glad to know it is a scam, was very suspicious!
same for me for amazon where the scammers screwed up is the email address they sent it to is not an email address for my amazon account
I got this very email, only instead of it claiming to be fed ex, it's claiming to be UPS. >.<
I'm waiting for these packages since last year every time I contact the seller they tell me still in customs above that's my address
