Mistake?, Scam (10-20-19)
The following is a scam in which the scammer is hoping to trick the victim into clicking a link which will be used to steal the victim’s personal information. You can tell this is a scam because the scammer’s email address/ name does not match the signature nor is the email from someone the victim knows. You can also tell it is a scam because of just the link and no other information inside the email. And the mispellings on sincerely.
If you have received an email like this, please delete it.

Hi,
A package was delivered to us by mistake…..I think
I opened the box and noted that your email was on the invoice…coming up to summer I thought it might be personal or work related.
We are just down the road by the Mcdonalds. I can drop it by if you will be in this afternnon?
I took a picture of the invoice, I can’t make out the name but you can clearly see your email address
