Hello, I ordered a package from Ireland to the United States knowing I will have to pay import fees and taxes. I have been getting flooded with emails and texts from AnPost (Irish shipping company) with a link to payment on their website, saying they will send my item back to the seller if I don’t pay by tomorrow, but wouldn’t I be paying the USPS for customs and not AnPost from Ireland? isn’t it the destination country that gets paid? Are the emails a phishing scam because they include a link to payment? Am I paranoid or just stupid?

The emails have my name, address, phone number and the business name and they started right after the business sent me an email saying my order was shipped. It’s untracked. I’ve ordered from them multiple times before the tariffs and everything changed so I know the small business isn’t a scam but I’ve never had these problems before.

I have ordered things from abroad from other places and paid my fees without any trouble. The small business was absolutely no help at all when I emailed them about this 🙄 thank you to anyone who is willing to help me!!

There was a plumbing emergency at my mom’s house. My mom was in the hospital for a little over two weeks immediately after. During that time, my drunk, drug addict, free loading, jobless sister who lives there had plumbers come and do over $10,000 dollars worth of repairs, apparently they dug up the entire front yard and had to replace the main pipe. She did not make an insurance claim or take photos of the damage. Can my mom file a homeowners insurance claim now even though it has been 2.5 weeks and she has no photos of the damage? Or is it too late?

Thank you
