Incoming call appeared on both cell phones while we were away; caller ID displayed “Washington, DC”. The caller pretended to be USPS about an undeliverable package, yet we weren’t expecting any mail and had paused deliveries for the week. Likely a phishing attempt.

Expert Opinion
Screen incoming calls rigorously before answering, especially those spoofing government agencies. These reports describe a classic phishing scam where fraudsters pose as USPS officials, fabricating undeliverable package stories to extract personal details or payment info. The inconsistencies—like calling during mail hold periods and targeting both family members—scream deception. Hang up immediately if something feels off, and never share sensitive data over unsolicited calls. Verify directly with USPS through their official app or website instead. Report such incidents to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov to help curb these schemes. Block the number and enable call screening features on your phone for added protection.
