Scam Description I received a fraudulent text message claiming to be from the United States Postal Service (USPS). The message stated that a package could not be delivered due to an incorrect address and urged me to click a link to update delivery information and avoid additional charges. The text included USPS branding but did not provide a tracking number, recipient name, or delivery address. The message was sent from an international phone number associated with Moroccan mobile telecom infrastructure, historically linked to Orange Maroc (formerly Méditel / Medi Telecom). USPS does not send delivery notifications from international numbers or use shortened links.
