What callers from (952) 236-1351 say

Text and follow-up call about a held package needing $1.99 redelivery fee paid by credit card.

Why this matters: calls from this number have appeared in our directory 8 times across 3 distinct user reports between 2023-12-22 and 2025-11-22. Multiple independent reports describing the same script are a strong signal that the number is being used by an organized scam operation rather than a one-off mistake or wrong-number call.

The script associated with this number falls under our USPS / Postal Inspector category, where the caller pretends to represent the U.S. Postal Service / Postal Inspection Service. Read the category page for the broader pattern this fits into and how to verify whether you are actually being contacted by the agency in question.

Where the number is calling from

The caller-ID number reported is (952) 236-1351, with the area code 952 historically assigned to Minnesota. That does not mean the call physically originates there. Modern voice-over-IP services let scammers display essentially any number on the recipient's caller-ID screen, and the most common pattern is to spoof a number with the same area code as the person being called so the call looks "local." If you've received a call you believe came from this number, do not rely on the displayed caller-ID as evidence of who actually called you.

If this number is yours

It is genuinely possible that the number on this page is a real, legitimately-owned phone line whose caller ID has been spoofed by a scam operation without the owner ever placing a call. If that's the case for you, see our contact page for the process to add a clarifying notice or have the listing removed.

Robocall said my address had been flagged for mail fraud and to press 1 to speak with an inspector. Pressed 1 — got an extremely hostile man demanding personal info.

What you should do if this number called you

  1. Don't call back. The number may auto-route to an overseas call center. Returning the call confirms a working line.
  2. Block the number. Most modern phones have built-in spam blocking; block the full number, not just the prefix.
  3. Report it to the impersonated agency. File a complaint with the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov and, if the call impersonated U.S. Postal Service / Postal Inspection Service, with that agency directly through its official complaint channel.
  4. Tell us. Adding your report helps the next person who searches this number find the warning sooner.
