One time a USPS delivery person stole my package.
I know this because the tracking information a USPS clerk looked up for me showed the delivery person marking the package as delivered while being nowhere near the delivery address. In fact, nowhere near an address at all. It was marked as delivered to a street-intersection which houses a vacant field.
The USPS clerk acknowledged this, but said that because there were no other complaints about the delivery person that day, there was nothing they could do.
So it seems like USPS delivery people are literally allowed to steal one item of mail a day.
- rightbyte 5y agoMaybe he drove off, remembered he had to register your package, and then stopped to register it as delivered. Later a thief took it from your mailbox?
- dataflow 5y agoI've seen USPS packages get marked as "delivered" quite a while after they've been physically delivered. Like half an hour later, if not more. Unless it was physically impossible to get to the marked location within that amount of time, I don't think you can assume the timing to mean anything as to its actual delivery.
