Sorry this a marketing scam to get you to attend one of those time share marketing meetings. It's a trick to get you to pick up a free tablet but as soon as you go there (travel marketing group) you will have to stay and listen to the sales pitch!

I was told by my local U.S.P.S. that this number has nothing to do with the post office nor UPS.
