"OK I take it but I would like to come tomorrow but I am busy with work at the moment," the swindle usually begins.

"I'll send a UPS letter carrier to your home to give you your money in cash and collect the item."

They'll use this to send you a fake email pretending to be from the delivery company where you need to deposit the insurance money.

It'll include things like a fake tracking number to make it seem authentic.
