Is this a scam?

[lurker17260]

I just received this text message. I know nothing about any energy drink. Is it a scam of some sort?


(pls call 03 99335500 regarding shipment from USA (awb 2291587233) energy drink on hold with Australia Customs for more information on product - regards)

Its either a scam or your about to take receipt of a large quantity of Colombian dancing powder:-)

That's what I thought. I'll just ignore it then. I'm pretty sure if it was really from DHL or Customs they would do more than just send a dodgy text.

Yes lurker....it's a scam. I also get DHL scam mails regularly. Just fumigate it!

If you did not order any drinks from the USA then why would you assume it maybe a legit email ?

That says it in a nut shell

Maybe it had been sent to my number in error, and someone was actually waiting for their purchase to be released?
I was simply asking if others identified it, as I more or less had, as a scam.
I certainly hadn't assumed it was legit, hence the question.
