Description
Random Text Message stating a package is being held due to incomplete address with USPS. Need to verify address by clicking on link provided. Takes you to a page that mimics the USPS website. Then asks you to enter your card details so it can charge you $0.20 to reattempt delivery. This is a scam b/c the email address came from is a Gmail and USPS would not ask for your card details this way. They would leave a note in your box to contact them regarding the delivery in question.
