RICHMOND, VA (VIRGINIA NEWS CONNECTION) – Many folks are still expecting holiday packages this week and the United States Postal Service is warning customers not to fall for “smishing” scams. John Hyatt, strategic communication specialist for the Postal Service, said smishing is the practice of sending fake text messages to mobile phones asking users to click on a link to resolve a ZIP code or other issue with a pending package. He warned personal data is what the sender is after.
