The story is an urban legend that has now been circulating for many years. There are no credible reports that support the claims in this old warning message in any way and it should not be taken seriously.<\/p>\n<h2>Example<\/h2>\n<div class=\"example\">\n<p><b>Subject: UPS Uniforms &#8220;WARNING&#8221; &#8211; a heads-up message<\/b><\/p>\n<p>UPS Uniforms<\/p>\n<p>Government Warning regarding purchase of UPS uniforms:<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;t make deliveries or pickups in anything, except a company vehicle. If you have a problem, call your local law enforcement agency right away!<\/p>\n<p>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!<\/p>\n<p>Kimberly Bush-Carr<br \/>\nManagement Program Specialist<br \/>\nU.S.Department of Homeland Security<br \/>\nBureau Customs and Border Protection<br \/>\nWashington, DC 20229<\/p>\n<p><\/br><\/br> Original Source : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.com\/ups-uniforms-hoax.html\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.com\/ups-uniforms-hoax.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This story was first published on September 21st, 2003 Outline Message claims that a large quantity of UPS uniforms has recently been bought on eBay and that the uniforms could be used by criminals or terrorists posing as delivery drivers. \u00a0 Brief Analysis The claims in the warning are false.
