You know...I tend to have people saying they mailed me packages (gifts) and I never received them. And I only find out when they start ignoring me that I never said "thank you" for the gift and realize...I'm missing some packages. Someone's stealing my stuff.
I hate hearing stories like this and seeing security video shown on news of people going up to peoples homes and stealing stuff: wcbstv.com - Holiday Thieves Target Home Deliveries Hell, my neighbors had some beer and soda and went in to take his groceries (with his trunk open, so he could get the other grocieres he had) in and he caught some people in a car taking his groceries and took off. Thing is...there are people who do things and with the economy bad...people are doing this whenever.... Since that time, I've always tried to have communication with my postal delivery person, UPS person and Fed Ex person. Reason being...I don't like things being left on my porch, especially packages. The fact is that even in safe areas, you have people drive by neighborhoods (especially during the holiday season) who will steal your package. In fact, I've had my postal delivery person tell me that they held my package instead of giving it to my neighbors. One time, I ordered a keyboard from Musician's Friend...expensive too...and you know what. Website said it was delivered via UPS...but I never got it. I went to my neighbors home (former neighbors were thugs) and asked if UPS may have dropped my package at their home...and they were like "oh, yes...this must be yours"... They never bothered to bring to me or nothing. So, I communicate with my delivery people since I receive a lot of packages for business and personal and tell them a) drop it at this neighbor's home b) put it under my door mat (I bought an oversized mat that would cover certain size of packages) if small or put it in my backyard. Teach your delivery person how to avoid the drama. But yeah, I have had my share of delivery drama, stolen packages and such.

Dude, that sucks. Do you still suspect your old tenant? Is this guy into GI Joe? Do you think he'd really keep it if he opened it up and saw what it is? And if he's still getting mail delievered to your place, you should have his name removed from the mailing list. Check with the post office. And tell him about it, and if he keeps getting in your mailbox, that's a felony.

I used to live in an apartment where I was convinced the mail carrier was a fellow comics/toy fan. The only stuff that ever went missing were comics and toy-related stuff. It seemed to happen far too often for it to be a fluke.
Also, in a different apartment, one day my mail stopped coming. Which didn't seem that weird, because I didn't get mail everyday or any thing. But then a week went by with no bills or junk mail or anything, and I had ordered a CD that I was waiting for. I went to the post office to find out what was going on. The brought out my mail carrier, and she told me the man down stairs (the old man, who NEVER came out of his apartment *except* to check his mail, by the way) told her that I moved, based SOLELY on that, she started sending all of mail back marked return to sender. Never got that CD. Also--one final thing about mail carriers. I had one fold a vinyl LP IN HALF(!!!!!!) to fit in the mail box. |
