es.usps.international is a phishing domain that impersonates the United States Postal Service (USPS). It targets people who expect a delivery or receive a message about a parcel. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-08-31. As of 2026-10-19 the domain was still alive and redirecting visitors elsewhere, so it could still be steering traffic to a live phishing page.
How the scam works
USPS lures usually start with a text or email claiming a package is held, undeliverable or awaiting a small redelivery or customs fee. The link leads to a page styled like USPS that asks for a name, home address, phone number and card details to "release" the parcel. Victims lose their card data and identity details, which can be used for fraudulent charges and follow-up scams. The page title currently shows a Wix "ConnectYourDomain Error", a hosting error message rather than USPS content, while we classify the domain as USPS impersonation.
Evidence
On 2026-09-12, 11 of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain, including BitDefender, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Google Safe Browsing, Gridinsoft and Kaspersky. That is a minority of engines, but it spans several independent vendors. Google Safe Browsing lists it under social engineering, so major browsers can warn visitors. Spamhaus DBL classifies it as phishing, and it appears on the MetaMask and SEAL blocklists as well as PhishDestroy's.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-08-28 through Tucows Domains Inc. and was detected only three days later. That short gap is typical of disposable domains set up for a quick SMS or email campaign. It sits behind Cloudflare, with the address geolocated to Canada, which hides the real origin server. The Let's Encrypt certificate gives it a browser padlock, but the padlock only means the connection is encrypted. It does not show that the site is genuine.
What to do
If you entered card details here, call your bank right away to block the card and dispute any unfamiliar charges. Expect follow-up calls or texts that pretend to be USPS or your bank, and never share one-time codes. If you submitted your address, phone number or date of birth, watch for identity fraud and consider a credit freeze. USPS does not request payment through unsolicited texts, so track parcels only by typing the official site address yourself. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and mail gateways, filter SMS and email that link to it, and report it to Cloudflare and Tucows for takedown.
For the registrable domain usps.international behind this subdomain, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.

Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
当地警方 — 即使无法立即采取行动，也能留下正式记录
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
虚假网站 — 与正规网站完全一致的克隆网站，仅域名略有改动
猪的屠宰 — 通过Telegram/WhatsApp/交友软件花数周时间建立信任，随后钱被骗走
退款诈骗 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
