USPS texts about 'undelivered packages' are the most common smishing scam in 2026. Paste the text below — ScamGuard checks the link, the sender, and the wording in seconds.
'USPS: Your package can't be delivered due to incomplete address. Update here: usps-tracking.help/xyz' — fake page steals card details for a $1.99 'fee'.
'Delivery attempt failed. Schedule redelivery: bit.ly/usps...' — leads to a credential-stealing page.
USPS only sends texts if you signed up for tracking notifications via usps.com. Unsolicited 'your package is held' texts are scams (smishing) — paste it into ScamGuard to confirm.
If you only opened the page, you're probably fine — change any password you may have entered. If you entered card details, freeze the card immediately.
Real USPS texts come from 5-digit short codes and never contain a non-usps.com link. Fake texts use random phone numbers and link to look-alike domains like usps-redelivery.com.
USPS smishing is the #1 SMS scam in the US — bots blast millions of numbers nightly. Block the sender, paste it here, then delete.
