Possible Spam

Hi,

I keep receiving emails that say your order is out for delievery today. The email also includes my address and estimated delivery. There are also two links that say - track order and check status. However, I haven't bought anything. I am wondering if anyone else recieves these emails and if they are spam and if so how do I stop receiving them?

Thanks

Ella

Who purportedly sent the email...eBay?.. Australia Post?

Did anything arrive? Have you sold anything on eBay that could possibly be

being returned?

Do you allow anyone else to use your other eBay account?

Or could anyone else in the household have bought something whilst you were still logged in?

Was indeed an eBay purchase?

Have you phoned Australia Post/the delivery company?

I have only ever had one once, not from eBay but a major online store, for a purchase that had been delivered two weeks prior. I phoned the store and they said they had an internal error which resulted in out for delivery notifications being sent out for past orders

If it is not a legit email address, block it
