Watch out for package scammers!

If you get a text from what appears to be a delivery driver, do not reply!

According to the Better Business Bureau, one delivery scam includes a text stating, "The USPS package has arrived at the warehouse and cannot be delivered due to incomplete address information. Please confirm your address in the link. https://realmastm.com (Please reply to 1, then exit the SMS, open the SMS activation link again, or copy the link to Safari browser and open it) The US Postal team wishes you a wonderful day."

If you get this text, ignore it!

Also, look out for texts or emails that ask you to reschedule a delivery or pay a small delivery fee. Remember, never give sensitive personal information to strangers.
