Postal & Telecom Scam Warnings in Rock Hill

In the Charlotte metro, watch for cross-border scams that spoof both South Carolina 803 and North Carolina numbers. Across Rock Hill ZIP codes, watch for USPS “undelivered package” smishing texts that ask you to pay a small redelivery fee, address-change and mail-hold fraud, and area-code spoofing that makes robocalls appear to come from a local Rock Hill number. The Postal Service never texts you a payment link for a package, and legitimate callers do not demand gift cards or wire transfers. Report mail fraud to the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and unwanted calls to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov.
