Description

An ad popped up on Facebook showing a sale on stamps “before a price increase next month”. It seemed like a USPS address and the site seemed secure. However it should have been a red flag when I tried to login (I have a USPS account) and it wouldn’t accept my login. It advertised real stamp designs in the usual formats and designs at sale pricing. I purchased 2 books of stamps. After I finished my purchase I didn’t receive a confirmation email, only a very brief email saying “thank you for signing up”. No information was provided on tracking or options to contact them or cancel the order. I went back to Facebook and saw comments that they were a scam and then looked up further information and went directly to usps.gov, at that point I reached out to PayPal and my bank to see if I could stop payment.
