Sharing online ordering experience I had
Greetings,
I haven't been on in a while. Mostly due to the ton of info on here, I really don't need to ask questions. My source got sloppy with the packaging and it was intercepted. It arrived with customs tape on it (I thought it may have been Taiwan customs). I had to go sign for it at the post office. The name on the package wasn't mine. It's a friends package. I think they checked my ID. Don't remember. I did my usual storage of items and had to deploy for job (intelligence world).
When I returned from deployment I learned local, state, and federal peeps came to my house with pictures of my items. Wife knew nothing. They asked if I was in the post office on a certain date. She told them I was deployed. It freaked me out as it sounded like a controlled delivery. I was so panicked, I went fight or flight. Jumped in my car and left the area for a few hours. It gave me time to analyze the situation. I know first hand what big brother has in it's arsenal (local, state, & federal). They told my wife that someone may have used our mailbox as a drop point as we are out in the sticks.
What I learned -
1. I'm not signing for shit. If there is any question, I know nothing and it's not mine.
2. I've gotten better at securing my stuff. I won't go into details here, but imagine the TV show Get Smart with the 500 doors. I have it IR, Thermal, and x-ray proofed. (told you it freaked me out).
Anyway, just wanted to share my bad experience with online stuff.
