What Can I Do? / myLot

I received a notice from UPS that a package was delivered today and I can't find it. I checked the porch, and mailbox, and no package. Has this ever happened to anyone here, and what can I possibly do. I don't want to think porch pirate but it maybe the case. This is so frustrating.

Did you order something and expect it to be delivered today?

No it was about 3 days ago. I think the delivery man put it in the mailbox, which is far from my house.

@popciclecold That's happened to my husband and I. We find strange things in our mailbox.

Call the merchant that you bought the items from and tell them your package wasn't delivered, often the merchant will refund they money while they contact UPS to find out what's happened. I've had several shipments refunded and come to find out the carrier left the package at the wrong address, once 2 states north of my location

I would check around with your neighbors first and then call them if you can't locate it.

Sometimes they deliver to the wrong house. Check with your neighbors

You might want to call UPS to see if there is a package for you. This is one of the ways scammers sends messages to people.

I really hope it was just delivered to someone nearby in error. That has happened several times to me.

I hope it shows up. I got two that are suppose to be delivered today. Both for product reviews and I get to keep them. Plus a third one should be delivered tomorrow and it is a small drill that I get to keep.

Check your tracking number and see where the package was left. Sometimes they will leave it in front of our garage even though we've told them not to. If you still can't find it, call UPS. I hope you find it. Have a good weekend.

I get scammer emails from a poster who is claiming that I have a package and they tried to deliver it, and I need to contact them. Or that they need my address and phone to deliver it. Um, no. I just delete them and report them. When I am expecting a package, I know that it is coming. If it does not arrive, I will take appropriate action then, and do it myself.
