Scam by people posing as Australia Post

I received a email from someone posing as Australia Post saying a parcel was waiting at the post office and I should click on the email to get details. I do a fair amount of purchasing from Ebay and get frequent parcels delivered. I checked with Australia Post who told me it was a scam to get access to computers and get financial information. Be Aware the email did look very official and had Australia Post logo and everying. Do not click on the get more information tab.

Many (not all) have something alone the lines of 'click the link to get a parcel'

Click the link and print this and take to the post office
