    REcieved this message from one of my brothers:

    We just recieved an email from the “USPS Global” saying that we have a package that if not picked up that they will charge us $7.11 for every day it’s not picked up.
    It says to click on the zip to see the shipping label. If you do it will download a virus to your computer. Our protection caught it. I called the post office and they know about it.
    Everyone have a great day,
    Paul Chapman

    Yeah, you should never click a link or attachment you don’t trust 100%. Here are some other good rules to follow when on the internet to avoid getting a virus.

    USPS never sends out emails to customers for postage due, the carrier will either leave you a smallish brown envelope with the information you need to know, or it will be a 3 x 5 peach colored slip with the info you need. Also on anything postage due, it’s a 1 time fee to receive your item, the fee doesn’t roll over day to day, or accumulate any interest or late fees.
