Looking at the comments I'm surprised no one posted the URL within the QR Code. I never scan QR codes with my phone, however when curiosity strikes me bad enough I will use a linux tool called zbarimg to scan QR codes. 9/10 times it'll just spit out a URL:
It's just a link to a png file. It's safe in the sense that your device will not get a virus but whomever is running the webserver at ipfs.io will know your IP address. It's just an rather long image (1275x29718 pixels) of text. I don't have too much time this morning to read it but it might be worth it. I did notice at the bottom of the image is text for a PGP public key. Anyone understand what the PGP signature is for?
So to further what this anon is saying, go somewhere and get on public wifi before clicking link to limit pertinent info.
I dont know if IMEI data would transfer with the IP when clicking, ill let IT anons further explain. Ill be here to fix generators when the lights go out.
I would bet that cell phones (anything with an imei regardless of if activated) are all compromised at a level we can do nothing about at this point. Just my guess.

The QR code in this postcard is no different:
