Looks like we are getting hit as well. Is this a new variant of the virus? Appriver seems to be the first with any information.

Your UPS
This is the message i had delivered to my email this morning. Firstly i do use courier services
often, however i very rarely use UPS. A number of things which alerted me that this was or could have
been a virus First the document zip is a big clue. When ever i receive an email
concerning a failed delivery a message will be sent to me but not through a zip file, so sorry boys
who ever made this you messed up there.2nd i got told that this would cost me 36$ per day
if i did not collect, well if this was my parcel all my details would be there and last they would
know i don't live in the USA so you messed up also.
3rd No contact name at the end of the email. Never fooled me
