Mailbox Theft / Postal Fraud
A resident has recently reported an issue of postal fraud and mailbox theft. She reports that a package had been delivered to her mailbox, attached to the mailbox flag. She noticed that the flag had been damaged and there were bits of plastic attached to the flag. She found the empty package a half mile down the road. She later learned that someone had used her husband's name and address for a purchase and then appeared to be watching the mailbox for the delivery so that this person could grab the package as soon as it was delivered. It was also reported that a truck appeared to be following a mail truck and had stopped by a resident's mailbox, but quickly left when the resident called out to him. The truck picked up a man seen walking along the road. The resident believes that the truck was following the mail truck to see if packages were delivered and to steal them. The holiday season with its many package deliveries may be over, but this type of scam may continute and residents are urged to remain vigilant.
