Received SMS from 0448 008 003 supposedly from AusPost. Poor English in text is a give-way of a Scam .SMS contains a link to mypo.st/xxxx this is a scam. Do not click the link and delete the SMS.

have to eat my words because I just received a parcel that was sent by a friend so looks like AusPost e-mail message and phone text from 0448 008 003 were legit although will still be very weary and not click on anything either on the phone or the e-mail

Same message for me first sent via e-mail delivery from Amazom c/o SEKO then an sms this morning your parcel coming today. Did not order or have ever ordered from Amazon so unless it's a surprise pressie from a friend which I don't think so and to all those people saying it's not a scam they could be the one's sending the messages be weary people

Caller: 0448 008 003

SCAMMERS!
My item is coming from overseas and is due to arrive next week yet these bozos are telling me it’s coming today!
Nice try! A gold sticker for you!

scam txt message. mypo.st is the giveaway. Beware

This is a legit url. I've used this multiple times and doing a lookup, this domain is owned by aus post

Lowlife scumbag scammers. Aus Post does not have phone number displayed on genuine sms. when reply Y it is rejected as not functional. Do not click on link. reported.
How do they know who is sending a parcel. which is also beng delivered on same day, and for which a separate sms has been received?

yep scam get them too often have nothing coming genuine Aust post usually do not show a phone number on the top of the message page so I was told by Aust POST

Caller: AusPost

This SMS appears the same time as a legit message from AusPost, however when you click Y another message telling you there is a system failure has occurred, obviously hoping you will then click their link.
AusPost: Your parcel from 'Universal ...' is coming today.
Want us to leave it if nobody's home? Reply 'Y'.

I just received a message to that effect, supposedly from Auspost, saying my parcel from Target is arriving today - link attached to click on.
1) Auspost does not display a phone number
2) I havent ordered anything from Target.

Wrong. It's a genuine AustPost deivery.

Caller: AustPost

Mine was a genuine SMS from AustPost re: delivery of a parcel I ordered from Show Television.

I googled 'whois mypo.st'.
The domain is owned by Australia Post in Melbourne Australia.
Looks legit to me.

Caller: Courier

Received txt @ 6am that my parcel is coming today . & 'Want us to leave it if nobody home? Reply Y..then link' . Delivery arrived 820am. I didn't click on link but did reply with a Y. So all good :D

Text Message: Your item is coming today. Nobody Home? Reply "Y" and we'll leave it at your address if there's a safe place. Tracking details: https://mypo.st/U2SmFtY234

The number itself may be legitimate but if you get this SMS, delete it immediately, and do NOT open any link, it is a scam.

Caller: SMS or Email

Hi,
It's WHAT COMES AFTER THE WORD "mypo.st"//------- THAT COUNTS!!
That's what you need to check. Clicking on that link could download a key logger onto your device, or take you to a scammers website!!
Obviously, scammers are far more deceptive than WE REALIZE!!
JUST REMMBER, Australia Post WILL NEVER ASK FOR YOUR PERSONAL DETAILS, via email or text message!!

A txt from this number about a parcel arriving today and with a link for delivery options. Ten minutes later, a legit txt from Aus post about the same parcel and ten minutes after that, an obvious scam txt. I don't actually get too many of these scam texts, so if this number is a scam like others below suggest, then it looks like Australia post is responsible for the leak of our private data

Caller: SMS from AusPost.

I was sceptical so didn't click on link however a parcel did arrive. The seller's name on eBay did not match the name in the SMS. Not a scam. The SMS appears below:

AusPost: Your parcel from 'Quintillio...' is coming today.
Want us to leave it if nobody's home? Reply 'Y'.

AusPost: Your parcel from ( name ) is coming today. Want us to leave it if Nobody's hoke?
Reply Yes.Tracking and T&Cs: https://mypos.st/IQbiWbjPd5m.

I get these messages when I'm receiving a package, I have the Aus Post App & No when Im getting a delivery.
I have read comments saying this is a scam look at the mypo.st but if you look carefully at Auspost they have the same link exactly.
I'm waiting for 3 packages to arrive today.
So I am pretty confident this message is 100% legit.

Don’t worry, this is real. I was skeptical as well but the parcel it said was coming, came a few hours later.
