This is the worst sort of scaremongering.

Any time you get an email that has the phrase "send this to everyone you
know", you should regard it with suspicion. Search Google
(www.google.com) for "UPS uniform hoax" and see what comes up.

Best regards,

Subject: Fwd: UPS ALERT  - not sure if bogus, but worth forwarding, I
thought.

Government regarding purchase of UPS uniforms: BE ALERT!!!!

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 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..
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't make
deliveries or pickups in anything except a company vehicle. If you have
a problem, IMMEDIATELY call your local law enforcement agency right
away!
TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY! Tell everyone in your office, family, 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!
