Got phished through a fake FedEx delivery notice last Tuesday
I clicked a link in a text that looked like a FedEx tracking update for a package. Next thing I know, my email got hit with 40 spam signups and then a password reset attempt on my PayPal account at 3 AM. Had to freeze my credit and change 12 passwords. Anyone else get tricked by those delivery scam texts that look way too real?

Bet my postman's getting a very suspicious death stare tomorrow.

Three different packages have been "delivered" to my address this month that NEVER showed up. One was my medication which I had to call the pharmacy and beg for a replacement. The tracking said "left in mailbox" but my mailbox was empty. The guy at the post office told me they're SO overworked they just mark things delivered sometimes to meet their quotas. I swear our whole system is held together with tape and good intentions at this point.
