I just got this scam message as well. They tried to get me to click on a link titled;Parcels-123/iab22.I have no pending packages due, and all my packages go through my work, so I knew it was a scam. I then found this site that had a internet tag 13hrs prior. Be vigilant people. There are alot of scumbags out there that won't EARN there own. They rather take from hard working people.
