Anyone keep getting random text about packages or items you’ve ordered?

I just got one this morning saying that the perfume I ordered will be at the office for me to pick up.

I said, “I got it for you, keep it ;)”

Yes, all the time. It's another scam. Delete and report.

I like the ones that tell me, "Your ________ (insert company) account has been compromised, please click the link for service."

Knowing I don't even have that account...

Don't engage with them. It's a waste of time and while it's fun to annoy them, no one else finds your quips to them as funny.

They're trying to get you to click on the provided link so they can load malware into your laptop/phone/desktop. Report and delete. It's just some Paki fishing for an easy mark.

Go read some threads on r/scambait, you’ll recognize how these scams all begin. They’re starting a conversation, hoping you’ll keep talking. Eventually, they’ll want to switch to some other chat platform so they can hand you off to the next guy who will run the scam to get you to invest crypto with them or whatever.

Yes they were running this scam earlier this year in the UAE. You aren’t supposed to answer. Good luck.

You know how in the movies the cops need to keep the bad guys on the phone for 2 minutes to get a trace on their location?

got one from "usps" other day with a link saying i needed to update my address or package couldnt be delivered.

told em it was my 10 pack of 16 inch vibrating dildos and they could update my address to their a-hole. i hope someone gets to read responses to these but probably all automated phishing at this point.
