This is a clever email scam, especially for this time of year. I received an email supposedly from UPS. It says my address is wrong and provides a link to “Track your shipment now!”.

The email looks pretty legit and even uses my real name. The link does not go to UPS.com though. The links at the bottom of the email do seem to go to UPS which would add false legitimacy to the email.

In cases like this where you might actually have a shipment coming you should go directly to the UPS.com website and track your package that way.

Don’t click on links in emails no matter who they are from or how real they seem.
