    A company sent me very valuable PC hardware to make videos on, but the package ended up being mysteriously re-routed to an unknown address. This video is my side of the story, sharing what went on with this entire ordeal. My goal was to document what happened as best I could and ensure that I could not be pinned as a suspect trying to commit fraud.

    Just wanted to clarify because the comment has come up a lot, Melissa is definitely not being "mean" or "rude" to me lol. This is just how we communicate with each other; we are sarcastic, sassy, and give each other a hard time constantly. It's playful, if it were seriously an issue we wouldn't have made it 7 years, bought a home together, or have a wedding coming up. Thanks for attending my TED Talk.

      This happened to me with a $6000 medical supplies package. They said someone called to change the address, which no one did, but wouldn’t tell me what address. Ended up having to file an insurance claim, which I won, to get my (health insurance’s) money back. A few weeks later my neighbor tells me they got a weird package, and it ended up being mine. They had given it back to UPS and it was long gone. If they would have told me the address, I could have gotten it from my neighbor and they could have saved the $6000 insurance payout.

      Yea. I don't think there was actually an attempt at a 'scam', but I've had a lot of dealings with UPS prior to the pandemic, but once the pandemic started they just went downhill. I've talked to some customer service 'off the record' and been told that they will misclassify items and list things as delivered when they weren't just because they are too backlogged. Which seems ridiculous. Just tell someone that. I actually had 2 situations similar to this where packages were listed as delivered, never delivered and then actually delivered about a week later.

Never had it recovered or found, ended up just getting a refund from the Mint. If I had to guess, some employee at the facility saw the shipper and snatched it for themselves. I know they can lookup this information because when I spoke to the manager they can see in their system who the shipper is despite the shipping label only saying "Processing Facility".

    I deal with a lot of different couriers and one of the things I learn is that never use couriers to ship to P.O. Boxes or apartments/condos. Always use postal service like USPS for those as they will have access to those buildings. If you must use UPS, Fedex, DHL or other couriers for your PO Boxes, I suggest having them hold it at your local UPS store or warehouse and picking it up yourself to avoid any headaches like you had for this shipment.

    Danny, I had a similar issue with FedEx last year. I sent in my laptop to Dell Repair Depot to get fixed, we have pro support so the turn around was suppose to be 5 days. I didn't hear from them after 5 days so I contacted Dell to find out what happened and get the tracking number which they did, said is was done and shipped already. I checked the tracking and sure enough it was delivered a couple days ago at this point and to a different address and a signed for by someone I never heard of. I called FedEx and pretended to be the person that shipped it and told them of what happened so they can give me all the details and demand a investigation. They said they send this case to an investigation and gave me a case number and that they would call me back, they never did. I had to call every few days to check up on it and I had to do this multiple times, so weeks go by. I think the last time they told me that the driver did go to the address and recover the package. A few days later I received a pretty messed up box with my laptop. The whole process took over a month.

I worked for USPS for two years and for as labored, underpaid and mistreated as a lot of the workers are, sadly many of them turn to taking their frustrations out on the customer. Also sad is that there absolutely are people that will video snipe orders. There’s tons of mail workers that are into tech and are also theives. It being a felony deters a lot of theft though, especially with how tracking works now.
      This sounds like a “simplest explanation is the right one” though. It was never going to be there in one day; a week is about on par for intercontinental orders even when expedited. Someone messed up from the get go, then logged it as delivered just to be done with it, then lied to you about the whole “someone called” thing, and snowballed from there.
      This happens to me every other day, being in a newly built neighborhood and I’ve gotten used to it, knowing the system. But I’d definitely be overthinking if it was and order like that. My orders are almost always marked as delivered and I’m like “okay so two days from now” lol

    This happened to me with newegg when I tried to build a 1600/1060 system a few years ago. It was like a $1000 pc build that was "delivered" but never arrived.
    I had had to file a police report and then 2ait to get a refund.

    Good vid man, glad u got your package!!!....I recently had to RMA my Powercoler Red Devil 6700xt that I purchased on launch day back in March. After about 10 days they received my card, they sent me email with tracking and my address as delivery (because FedEx don't deliver to PO box either). So the day has come that my card is supposed to be delivered.... But it doesn't come and tracking info says it was delivered at 2pm??!!??! I've been watching out all day for my package it was never delivered. So I had to contact Powercolor because FedEx told me that the delivery address did not match my residential address where it was supposed to be delivered. And FedEx couldn't give me the other address due to privacy concern. So I call power color and they say oh no it's delivered, to this address you provided... Which wasn't the address I provided, it was a completely different address. Then somebody else came on the line, some higher up manager or something and he gave me the whole scoop of the story. Powercolor changed the delivery address last minute to go to a FedEx pickup/delivery store because they didn't want my card just to be sitting on my doorstep in case if I wasn't home and or to make it less like a scam on my end. So I had to go to FedEx store provide my ID and tracking number and I finally got my card!! But it sure was a headache cuz I sure thought I was out of the $800 I paid for this. But thanks again for a great vid glad you got your package and everything worked out!

      Holy, that was so similar to my situation! Seems like a common tactic then, although the address I was provided was definitely a random house and not a local store or anything like that lol, I pulled their taxes in the county site and saw the names on the house title, was two SUPER Chinese names, which, led me to be even more paranoid it was miners trying to get the 3080Ti rofl. I left that part out of the video though since story time was long enough already lol

    It's pretty common for a driver to take a package that they know they're going to have an issue with delivering (or that they want to try to keep) and scan it that way while leaving it at the warehouse and the investigation will go like this exactly.
    I hope it doesn't happen again to you in the future.

    Ordered a cpu cooler a while back. First time shipped by ups, crushed all to hell and arrived late. I emailed and they sent me a replacement via usps. Arrived in 2 days and no damage. However, I was out of town for a week recently, and the usps mailman crumpled all of my mail in my box, including my son’s birth certificate. I guess it’s hard to stack flat pieces of paper in a box.

    I had my O11 Dynamic Mini delivered to the wrong building by UPS not long ago. I'm located at 452 and it was delivered to 352 which thankfully was just down the street. My number was on the package and the establishment called me thank goodness for that. With all this fuss one piece of styrofoam was broken and the bottom edge of my case was bent. I rebent it a little and with the glass side panel on it isn't noticeable at all.

    Oh man I had such a bad experience once. I ordered 10 3d printers from a company in China and they sent them to totally the wrong address! Like somewhere I'd never even heard of and was literally on the other side of the country. I had to organise my own courier to collect these printers all because the seller put the wrong address on the label! I was so panicked as it was about £3000 worth of printers! Thankfully the recipient was honest enough to get them to back to me!

I had a fedex delivery earlier in the day, and then around 6pm, another truck showed up with a package for another town all together. strange thing is my dog got out of my fenced in area at that exact moment and my dog was trying to get away from the fed ex person, as if he was trying to dog nap my doggo.

    I have the same issue with fed ex right now. Gpu was suppose to be here Tuesday, said they tried to drop it but they went to my neighbors and left a slip saying they tried to drop it. I called fed ex told them it was wrong house and gave them my phone number and directions for the driver. Yesterday they left a slip on my neighbors door again 🤷🏼‍♂️. Called again suppose to be here today it is soooooo frustrating. I was thinking the same thing, delivery driver knows and wants the gpu 😂. The place I purchased from called me today and said if it don’t come I need to go to the fedex facility and pick it up. They were on the phone with some manager. So if it don’t come I’m going to get it today same thing I will open it while I’m there just in case. Also the company refunded me 100$ for the inconvenience 🤷🏼‍♂️🤑.

    Post office delivered a completely flat and empty box covered in little stickers to let me know they delivered a completely flat and empty box. Needless to say the box was insured, the contents weren't and in their mind nothing could be done about it. Like what? What's the point of insured shipping if that only covers the box? And why deliver just the box and act like you did a good job? This was a few years ago so people cant even talk about how crazy things are with the virus and whatnot. It's also not the only time I've had issues with the post office.

    I would guess some employee had an idea what could be inside and stashed it, Possible the person who was providing all the updates or the hero employee who just happen to find it lost somehwere in the warehouse, They were probably hoping the shipping party would just refund the reciever and then they could walk away with the package after the investigation was closed by the shipping party.

    Dunno if any commentators mentioned it but some companies who don't want to be blamed for late shipping will lie and hope you believe it just so you don't complain. Like I ordered something from best buy and at first was told it was delivered to the mailbox, then at my door, then still in transit, then finally that the package was actually damaged during shipping and being shipped back to best buy (that is after an investigation was started). I have always had problems with UPS. I also used to work for the Post Office and witnessed my supervisor do the same thing telling someone they are looking for their package when she was actually at her desk doing nothing.

    I have had errors similar to that where I order something, and it pops up as due for delivery the next day.. However I knew it was coming from china, and it was virtually impossible for a package to move that fast through that many centers to reach me. So I just waited and it turned up.. Mine never said it was delivered somewhere else though.
