I've had some utterly ridiculous situations, like having an CCTV capture a package being delivered, the driver taking a picture of the delivered package for tracking, and then the driver leaving with it. I've also had them deliver packages to the wrong apartment numerous times, taking pictures of floor mats that don't even exist within a mile of me.

Yeah it's pretty clear the pictures is so Amazon can shrug when you say something wasn't delivered. Like it's smart of them as I'm sure package theft costs them a boatload of money. But boy do their delivery people suck. The number of times they've called me asking where I live... that's their job to figure out, not mine. Kinda laughed the other day as my amazon delivery person was also delivering postmates at the same time. No wonder they're not hitting their deadlines.

>I've had some utterly ridiculous situations, like having an CCTV capture a package being delivered, the driver taking a picture of the delivered package for tracking, and then the driver leaving with it. Same exact thing happened to me! Locals have also complained about the haphazard parking jobs and throw-your-package-at-your-door method that amazon's drivers do (to be fair on that last point, I regularly have the same experience with UPS).

Message I got a few weeks ago whilst at the theatre: "An Amazon delivery driver need help with your order. Reply STOP to stop receiving texts from Amazon delivery drivers. Hello, my name is [name]. Yor please [sic] in the bin" "Your order has been delivered" Getting home late then having to dig through a bin to find your parcel is not fun (and of course they didn't leave a card so other people had added stuff to the bin in the meantime). I've already complained to them about leaving stuff in the garden waste bin in the past (damp grass clippings and cardboard is _not_ a good combo).
