Post Number: 799 Registered: Jan-06 | 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 email list, even if they are friend or foe. We should all be aware!

Comments: This rumor has been circulating since February 2003, at which time I queried eBay spokesman Chris Donnelly about rumored large purchases of UPS uniforms on the auction site. He said: "We are aware of the rumor, but as far as we can tell it's just that -- a rumor." He added that he wasn't aware of any official investigation of the claims by law enforcement (which doesn't necessarily mean one didn't take place). Likewise, a United Parcel Service spokesman quoted in the March 2, 2003 edition of the Louisville, Kentucky Courier-Journal said: "Call it urban legend or call it hoax, there's nothing to it." He was skeptical of the notion that UPS personnel, who drive regular routes and are typically well known to their commercial customers, would be targeted for impersonation by terrorists. Articles of UPS clothing have turned up for sale on eBay Corporate denials notwithstanding, it is a fact that pieces of UPS uniforms have at times turned up for sale on eBay. I found several examples myself on February 28, 2003, the same day I spoke with eBay's Chris Donnelly. He admitted to being unsure whether UPS uniforms were specifically prohibited for sale on eBay. In the event, the items I saw were administratively deleted within hours of their posting, which suggests that auctions involving parcel carriers' uniforms may indeed be banned, or at least monitored for propriety. According to participants in online discussions tracking this rumor, evidence was found in early January 2003 -- in the form of eBay search results showing completed transactions pertaining to UPS uniforms -- of a few such auctions where the bidding went suspiciously high. FBI advises 'due diligence and verification' The FBI ultimately confirmed that such purchases did take place and were thoroughly investigated. The transactions were found not to be terrorist-related. I repeat: according to the FBI, the transactions were not terrorist-related. Still, the agency recommends as a matter of course that "due diligence and verification of delivery personnel" be included in the security routine of any building receiving outside deliveries. Customers who are concerned about the legitimacy of any UPS delivery can call 1-800-PICK UPS to verify it, according to the company's spokesman. Update Despite the apparent signature of a Dept. of Homeland Security official named "Kimberly Bush-Carr" on versions of the rumor circulating since June 2003, this message did not originate from the U.S. government. The signature is a hoax. |
