I'm sure most people here would recognise this as fishy but I'm sharing anyway. Warn your more trusting friends and family!

Is that distributed by Canada Post, or dropped in a mailbox by hand?

Either way, it's wild that the scam is lucrative enough to make the costs worth it.

I think it was dropped off by Canada Post, but I'm not sure.

The site is hosted by godaddy on a server in the us. It should be trivial for law enforcement to get that taken down, if they actually gave a shit.
