Warning UK Post Office Delivery Scam

Be aware of this postal scam and warn others.   Over the last week I have received a number of very professionally made emails from the UK Post Office and Parcel Force encouraging me to click on a link.  I did and my firewall security went bonkers and stopped the link.  You may not have such security in place and end up giving away your details and paying (giving scammers your financial details).

Is t.co a Virus or Is t.co a trojan

Many of you may be wondering where all these links to https://t.co/ and https://t.co/ are coming from when your trying to understand if a site can be trusted or needs to be blocked, if you know how to block things through your router.

I have just set up my new #scam-catcher blog and noted immediately that my new blog had been visited by https://t.co/ and was smelling rats everywhere.

After some research I can report that they safer than most, in that they are autogenerated by Twitter as part of URL shortening system, by shortening URL using their own algorithms it  should help reduce spam the the original Author by not broadcasting their URL for all to see, but instead broadcasting only their auto-generated URL which only Twitter can use and decode.

This strikes me as a great idea, as we are forever being forced to disclose URL details which are picked up by SPAM BOTs and bombarded with the latest scam.

Here is a nice graphic I found.

I hope you find this information useful and subscribe to this blog.
