[Hoax] Government Warning regarding purchase of UPS uniforms

Funny, our FedEx Ground driver has delivered more than a few times in a Budget truck, when his rig breaks down. Guess they don't have the same standards as UPS. The terrorists should have bought FedEx uniforms. :awe:
 
A more interesting question is.. how did they find out about this?

Does eBay track purchases for "suspicious" behavior? Or does the government track eBay? :hmm:

Ha. I don't care what they deliver in as long as I get my packages on time. I hate paying for 2 day and getting it in 5.
 
This story is OLDER THAN SIN. I remember having it posted in the security command center where I worked almost a decade ago. OK, I guess sin is a little bit older.

It's ok. Relax. The TSA and Dept of Homeland Security have everything under control.
Your packages will all be sniffed at the main UPS hub by drug and bomb dogs.
I could tell you more, but then Id have to kill myself. 😀

In all seriousness drug dogs visit UPS hubs kind of often and take a couple of sniffs in each truck right about the end of the shift that loads the delivery vehicles.
 
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!

And around Christmas, the major carriers will rent trucks to handle the extra packages, rather than keeping too many trucks.



And the first tipoff that this was something silly should have come here:
This could represent a serious threat as bogus drivers (terrorists) can drop off anything to anyone with deadly consequences!

Yes, because the main reason to put on a uniform like that is terrorism, and not basic theft or burglary.😀

Downloading music illegally? Terrorism!
Stealing someone else's lunch at work? Terrorism!
Flicking a cigarette butt out the window? Terrorism!
Putting steel in an aluminum recycling bin? Terrorism!

The DHS is going to need more people in order to deal with all this.
