Is Printalta a Scam? Review of printalta.com

Printalta located at printalta.com appears to be a scam. I keep getting scam text messages like the one below claiming I need to update my USPS shipping information for a package that arrived, or it will be returned. The scam text has a link that goes to a fake USPS page at printalta.com. The page requested my personal information and claim my tracking number(US9514901185421) has issues with my shipping address. But, the thing is, I have never ordered from Printalta and do not have a package that is being delivered.

The link in the scam text goes to the following fake USPS page that always claim there is an issue with the visitor's shipping address:

The page is imitating USPS's website in order to trick visitors into submitting their personal information. Information like that are crucial to scammers, because they can use it contact their potential victims.

I currently recommend that online users stay away from printalta.com because the website appears to have been hijacked by cybercriminals or is a scam.
