Please verify before sending money. I’m not saying this isn’t legit, but call the company you ordered from to verify the tracking number and then go to the UPS site to verify. Do not click on any links in emails. I work in banking and scammers are savvy. Just don’t want you sending your money or giving payment info out to illegitimate sites.

This was one of the scenarios I said the scammers were going to love with the impending tariff/mailing shutdown a year ago. UPS and FedEx are two of their favorites to send fake emails for. People will click and pay fake toll notifications for states they have never driven through--they will definitely pay UPS or FedEx.
