So the problem is you as the receiver can't say the package was stolen only that you didn't receive it.
If you have a porch camera that shows a theft then that is reportable.
"Amazon says they delivered it but they didn't" could be a paperwork screw up.
- maerF0x0 3y agoIdk if it applies in this specific case, but usually when my package is delivered there is a photo from the carrier. Would that not be evidence?
- JohnFen 3y agoThat lack of such a photo isn't evidence. The presence of such a photo is also not evidence that the package was actually delivered -- there are numerous cases of the delivery people putting the package down, taking the photo, then immediately stealing it. So, if I were the police, I wouldn't really put much stock in those photos at all. Surveillance camera footage, however, is a different story.
- dragonwriter 3y ago> The presence of such a photo is also not evidence that the package was actually delivered It is evidence. It is not irrefutable proof, but then evidence usually isn’t.
- JohnFen 3y agoTrue. I should have said it's "weak evidence".
- Guvante 3y agoI don't know why a photo wouldn't be evidence. The delivery person stealing doesn't make it not theft.
- JohnFen 3y agoWhat I meant was that the delivery person taking a picture of the package sitting on your doorstep is weak evidence that the package was properly delivered, because delivery people have been known to steal the package immediately after they take the "proof of delivery" photo.
