Re: Fake email or not
If you're not expecting anything then could be a scam. If you are expecting something, make a note of the tracking reference then go to the company website and track the number. DON'T follow the link. The from email address should ring alarm bells.

Re: Fake email or not
The “from” address is dodgy.
The “for” line is dodgy (should be an actual name not an Internet forum style username).
The tracking number at the top of the message is different to the tracking number at the bottom.
“Delivery of the suspended package” is crap English.
Nowhere in the entire multiverse is this likely to be a genuine message.

Re: Fake email or not
Obviously fake just looking at the from email, if someone needs to ask then no wonder people get scammed so easily.

Re: Fake email or not
Thanks for your input guys, since coming out of hospital I'm suffering from a Potassium deficiency which includes confusion they cant get under control for the moment so your input really does help.
