Speaking of USPS scams - I heard one customer ask a clerk when he would get his "prizes" from the USPS survey he took. The clerk looked at him like, 'What?" and he said that he got an email from USPS from "official" looking email with logo. He went on to explain it was from USPS and they were doing a satisfaction survey and that he would get prizes for submitting his answers to it, so he clicked the link out of the email and took it. The clerk told him that they do not do things like that, and that it was likely a scam. He became upset and let her know that he paid seven dollars to take it. She thought it was for sure a scam and let him know. He was now very upset and agitated, pointing out that it was FROM USPS and had the logo. It finally was hitting him that it had been a scam and he said, "well, at least it was only seven dollars". The clerk looked over at him and said, "Yeah, maybe it was only seven dollars - but now they have your account numbers...." So moral of this actual story: BE CAREFUL EVERYONEEEE
