Police departments throughout the nation are warning the public about a new text message phishing scam that looks to be from FedEx or another delivery company about a package.
The text message shows you a "tracking code" and asks you to click it to set delivery preferences for "your package." (See image above.)
Police are warning anyone who gets such a text not to click on the link.
The link would take you to a fraudulent site that tries to steal your personal information and money.
If you are in doubt about a tracking number, go to the main website of the shipping company and search for the tracking number.
On its website, FedEx is providing info on email and phishing scams.
