I received this email today.....
This is a post notification
Email notification ID 45277621
Your package has been returned to the Post Express office.
The reason of the return is "Incorrect delivery address of the package"
Important message!
Attached to the letter mailing label contains the details of the package delivery.
You have to print mailing label, and come in the Post Express office in order to receive the packages.
Thank you.
Post Express
That's it!!!! It claims to come from Post Express <postmail-uin4941@tulsa.com>
There is an attachment but it's not compatible with my Mac (I haven't tried but I know the file ending will not work on my laptop).
Anyone know what the scam is? It's almost certainly one but love to know what....
Thanks

Thanks Welshbookworm. I couldn't find that link.
Can you believe I've just received a second one but this time it got picked up by the spam filter.0 -
You're welcome
I had the same email a couple of days ago and googled the name 'Post Express' (before opening) and they appear to be a Serbian Postal Service !
Decided not to open it. When your thread appeared here I googled them again and the link I put up was at the top of the list.The best portion of your life will be the small, nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to you.0 -
I've had emails similar to this in the past, the attachment has contained a virus or some other kind of nasty0

Same thing happened to me today! Thanks for the link welshbookworm!0

Not had that one but I did get a different one the other day from someone saying they had been paid to hack into my computer and steal information about me and then send a virus. Horrible email.
I opened it by accident and deleted it.Wow, I got 3 *, when did that happen :j:T:p
It is not illegal to open another persons mail unless you intend to commit fraud - this is frequently incorrectly posted
I live in my head - I find it's safer there:p
