I am sure no one here would be stupid enough to click on a link like this; just wondering if any of you got a similar text recently?

Not that one but off and on I've been getting something similiar trying to act like its from UPS.

The weird thing is, a few of them had my first name on it so that has me thinking, someone along the line in UPS is selling the info to the scammers. I started paying attention to it and anytime I'd send something UPS, 2-3 days later I'd get a message.

Was usually something like Hello, XXX, we found your missing package. Please go to this link (shady weird link included) to claim it.

After responding with 'go die in a fire' a few times, I stopped getting them.
