New scam? email saying a package is delayed due to excess shipping charge $1.95

Weirdly claimed to be from DHL then another from Fedex with the same amount.

As I was expecting a package from Japan I started to enter my CC etc and then stupidly hit enter.

Then started to get suspicious ...

Had to cancel my CC of course.

I guess DHL and Fedex don't really have time to deal with these scammers?

Funny since I haven't ordered anything. Think they are just fishing for banking info.
