I also received this same text message from 833-260-4814 and found this thread by searching the tracking number from the link provided. Will block the number and delete the message.
Me too
I received the same text from the same number and same tracking number. I didn't click on link. I will be deleting and blocking the number. I will also be making a complaint at ReportFraud.ftc.gov I urge others to file complaints as well.
The message looked real, and even checked on USPS Package Tracking (no status information). I decided to check the phone number and arrived at this page confirming the scam. Maybe USPS could flag the tracking number and notify customers that the number is associated with scammers.
Google fake credit card numbers and fill out there form 😆that will have them chasing fake payments! Gotta p**s them off from doing this!
I just received a text message from 833-806-0916. The text stated it was from the United States Postal Service and that my address is wrong and they cannot deliver to me until my address change is confirmed. A link was provided within the text message, which I did not click on. I blocked the phone number and then deleted the text message.
I got this same text from the same number.
