Just got a scam email from Canada post. Downloaded it on my cellphone.

Took it to my local post office and they said it was a scam, Canada post would never have my email. How do I get the download off my cell? I've already double deleted the email itself.

your orders and memorize the first three numbers of them -- you'll be able to see without opening it whether it's really Amazon or a fake.
