Warning. Possibly a scam

Di from Nawton

Today I received an email message supposedly from NZ Post advising that they had not been able to deliver a package because no-one was home. They gave an option for times for it to be delivered, at a cost of $1.60.
Since no-one here had ordered anything, I was suspicious. Also in the past if … View more
Today I received an email message supposedly from NZ Post advising that they had not been able to deliver a package because no-one was home. They gave an option for times for it to be delivered, at a cost of $1.60.
Since no-one here had ordered anything, I was suspicious. Also in the past if something was undeliverable there was usually a note left at the door or in the letterbox, not an email communication. (where did they get my email address anyway?) A tracking number was at the top of the communication, but when I entered this on NZ Post website it was an invalid number. I suspect that if I'd clicked on the delivery time option it would have led on to a place to enter my bank account details......
Has anyone else had this sort of email?
