Government warning

Government Warning regarding purchase of UPS uniforms: There has been a
huge purchase, $32,000 worth, of United Parcel Service (UPS) uniforms on
eBay over the last 30 days. This could represent a serious threat as
bogus drivers (terrorists) can drop off anything to anyone
with deadly consequences! If you have ANY questions when a UPS driver
appears at your door, they should be able to furnish VALID I.D
Additionally, if someone in a UPS uniform comes to make a drop off or
pick up, make absolutely sure they are driving a UPS truck. UPS doesn''t
make deliveries or pickups in anything, except a company vehicle If you
have a problem, IMMEDIATELY call your local law enforcement agency right
away!
TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY! Tell everyone in your office, your family, your
friends, etc. Make people aware so that we can prepare and/or avoid
terrorist attacks on our people! Thank you for your time in reviewing
this and PLEASE send to EVERYONE on your list, even if they are friend
or foe. We
should all be aware!
