I get those emails on one of my accounts. Just stand back and think about it - legitimate organizations like UPS would not bury the contents of their email in a zip file. Secondly, there is usually a website and a waybill number for you to track the progress of your shipment - they usually let you look it up rather than tell you the anticipated arrival, this way they make you go to their website and you get exposure to their services. It is like grocery stores placing the milk, bread and eggs at the back of the store - you bound to pickup something else along the way.
Even seasoned computer people on occassion activate a virus, we just don't like admitting it.
