I received a yellow mailer reading PARCEL PICK-UP NOTICE on it. Saying they would only hold the package for 72 hours. Nowhere on it did it say USPS, UPS or Fed Ex. Upon further investigation on the internet it looks like a total scam. Be careful guys!!!

Received a yellow postcard in the mail today. Tampa, FL area. Didn't order anything, so was going to look up the parcel number on the website and see who the sender was. Realized I didn't know which postal service it was since there wasn't a name! I wish they can find these people and put them on an island in the middle of nowhere away from civilization. What losers, get a real job, don't scam hard working people!

Just got that postcard today in FL....I was suspicious as I have not ordered anything so I was not expecting any parcel.  I called the #  but *67 first.. An automated voice asked for package # off the card..so I put that in..silence for a few seconds..then rang busy so I hung up....then googled this #...found what I thought all along..scammers....I guess they are getting lots of people blocking their telemarketing #s...so now they fill up the US mail boxes..SMH

Got postcard in Illinois today. Also have received probably 20 bs phone calls at the house over the past few days. So much for the "do not call list".

Received same card and called for the Heck of it..It did resemble UPS.  DMG promotion was explained to me by Miranda..I was given another number to call to make arrangements for pick up. 888-684-2654

Got a post card today. Thought it looked too perfect as most shipping co.'s leave notes w handwriting on them. Its the same card that everyone has described. Definitely a scam.

Scam... Time share? Bottom left says global vacations network in the small fine print......    Comes via postal mail appears to look like a ups tag... Toss it....

Got the postcard in MA today.  You have to love the internet, Google, and 1-800Notes...., searched and in minutes found it is a huge scam.  

About to make worthless trip to UPS then read more careful. What a scam. TRASHCAN.

I just want to point out here that this can backfire. Some spoofed numbers actually belong to real people or legitimate company's and those are also victims of this crime.

Got a second notice, total scam. I'm thinking of spamming them with calls. use *67 before you dial them and mess with em.

What would be fun would be to call from a pay phone, if you could find one!

I received this post card too, assumed it was a scam, googled to confirm and  got here.. So how do we fill their mailbox with junk, make them run ragged and waste their time?

today i got a yellow and brown post card with my full name, a package number #1239-9629-4622 and a toll-free # 888-684-2674. Card also says, We can hold this package for only 72 hours. This SCREAMS scam. Even tho i'd love to pry further, i wont in fear of them getting my # even blocked!

mine was received in Chicago.

Received same yellow post card from West Palm Beach FL. Permit 1002 (same as noted above). Called the number, entered the Package # and then was on hold. Gave them 4 minutes and then hung up. No ID as to who sent it- even in the small print.

Mail fraud! Federal Crime. Interstate. Should be shot or hung.

P.S. it must be fantastically successful, for so many people all over the country to be receiving it. It's also first class mail, which is relatively expensive to send, even in postcard form. Wonder if they are renting their lists or just mailing the phone book. Doubt that many reputable list brokers would handle this, as there is potential for getting sued.

Just got one today. You are correct that they only need a small percentage of responders to make it worth their while -- especially since this is a postcard -- but would guess response is much higher, in the neighborhood of  3%, since this is at the very least a two-step (i.e., they don't offer a product to you unless you reply to this postcard) mailing. Would guess the product is very expensive, such as a condo time-share, to justify this relatively expensive strategy, involving mailing, inbound telemarketing and so fortth. The "android tablet" could be real but complete drek. One thing for sure -- to get it, you will probably,y have to consent to their calling you whenever they like, to badger you into buying their swampland time-share or whatever else it is they're selling. Surprised UPS hasn't sent them a cease-and-desist, since this mailing clearly is intended to delude the recipient into believing this came from Big Brown.

Got the same thing, Clermont, FL.  Suspicious so searching found all these posts, thank you everyone

I received the same in Orlando, FL:  

The stamp on the card says: West Palm Beach, FL Permit # 1002

If someone has time to do this; here it is a tip I found on "ehow" to track this ?uc?ers

Tracing Mail Permits
Take a piece of mail bearing a mail permit imprint to the post office and ask the postal worker to trace the mail permit number. You will need to verify that you are either the bearer of the mail permit--the sender--or the recipient of the piece of mail bearing the mail permit. Bring photo identification with you. The post office will be able to trace the mail permit number for you.

Good Luck !!!

Yes, I got a faux UPS postcard with the notice to pick up in 72hrs. SCAM

Got this today, called answered a couple questions and they claimed I won a tablet.  What a load of crap.
Illinois.

Got the same yellow/brown post card today
Got a similar email as well earlier this week asking me to click on a link to print out my shipping label.  
All a scam.

I was expecting a package from an eBay purchase made from China and thought it was related to that so I called the number and put in the code they knew my name but now they have my telephone number. realizing it was some marketing scam of some kind.  I hung up immediately. I have call blocks on my phone so I'm not worried but will they sell my number to even more scum bags. technology needs to catch up with these dirt bags and turn the tables for consumers for a change.

Same card received today in Cecil Co. MD.  Figured it was some kind of scam when there was no company name and trying to disguise themselves as UPS.  Thanks for all the info.  In the trash it goes!

I got the same card today and since it looked like something from UPS, I called the number and was immediately placed on hold.  I got suspicious and as I waited, I googled the number and found out this was a scam to get ID info.  I immediately hung up, but from now on, if I get anything like this in the mail, I'm doing research on it first.

I also got a post card,called put in 12 digit no. Put on hold for 7 minutes to find out I won an android tablet. I hung up.

I also received yellow post card with brown print by mail stating call our Distribution Center 888-684-2674 to schedule a pick up. Will hold for only 72 hrs package # 1237-7160-7370. Thank you everyone for your post- I did not call

got the yellow card in Illinois yesterday
