Possible or Probable ??

UPS Uniforms

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, 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!

The first question that comes to mind is...
Why the hell would there be UPS uniforms on EBay.

They probably just wanted to get in on the brokerage fees scam that UPS and FedEx have. :lol:

Ooooh don't get me started on brokerage fees... DHL isn't any better if anyone was wondering - both in billing, cost and general idiocy. 75$ customs charge for a replacement (warranty) part - worth 2.99$ - CCRA called it worth 60something. (Then again, I'm more sour at the damn shipper who was told to ship USPS, and decided to be 'nice' and overnight it).
