Scamming - Fraud
Scammers are sending the fake USPS Servusp package text message below with tracking number US9514901211032 to potential victims. The scam text claims the recipients' package has been stopped and will only be re-delivered if a fee is paid. Recipients are then asked to click a link to make payment, but that link goes to the fake USPS website servusp. com that steals account credentials, personal and financial information.
Tracking Number: US9514901211032. Status : We have issues with your shipping address. USPS Allows you to Redeliver your package to your address in case of ...
The link in the text message goes to the following fake and phishing USPS website:
hxxp://www.servusp.com
If you have received the Servusp USPS scam text, please do not follow the instructions in it, just delete it.

When trying to copy/paste just the servusp portion of the text & google search it, I accidentally copy/pasted the entire message & when I google searched it, it opened up the bogus USUP website. I immediately closed it & then cleared my cookies, history etc ... except my passwords & autofill. Do I need to worry that I am compromised now? I didn't fill out anything on that bogus webpage.
Once you didn't submit your information on the bogus website, you should be OK.
