Boy, there is a perfect way for the scammers to bypass proper security. That e-mail address could go ANYWHERE!

No, that's not how e-mail works. If you see other e-mail addresses with @company.com referred to on said www.company.com site, you can be 100% sure it will end up somewhere in @company.com mailbox. Otherwise someone spoofed (or stole) the whole domain. But then the web site could be fake or intercepted, too.

I've had significantly more headaches with FedEx than I've ever had with DHL. I don't use Fedex for anything international anymore.

Indeed. The only “gotcha” is lookalike domains using alternate Unicode characters that are visually indistinguishable from the regular Latin alphabet. But many email programs now warn about this, plus the easiest way to ensure you’re sending to the legitimate domain is to simply type it in by hand.

I decided to not pay and see what happened. FedEx shows that the package was delivered, so it obviously did not have any "issues" with customs.
Bud:
They may not have worded it properly. I doubt you are going to get a free ride. Either you will get a bill from FedEx or if JLCPCB paid for it they may not ship the order until you reimburse them.
