Today, I got a notice on my apartment door that I'd received a package when no one was home, and it was left at the backdoor. I don't have a backdoor. FML

Same thing different taste

What was in the box?

Today, I got a notification that a package had been delivered. I opened my door and saw it on at doorstep. I was expecting one, so I grabbed and opened it, then realized it wasn’t mine, but my neighbor’s. I had to awkwardly re-tape it, then sneak over and leave the disturbing contents of the box on their porch before they noticed. FML

Today, I received a text saying that a package had just been delivered to the house. By the time I reached the front door, it had been stolen. FML

Today, a phone I bought online turned up while I was at work. The delivery guy left a note saying he'd left the package with my neighbor at #10. When I went and knocked on the door and asked for the package, my neighbor said "Nope, nothing delivered here." and quickly shut the door in my face. FML

Today, I found a note on the front door of my flat saying, "You left your keys in your garage door so I put them in your letter box". Guess where my letter box key is. FML

Today, I received an email from a shipping company telling me they had dropped off a package of expensive electronics at the front door. Too bad someone stole it before I made it to the door. FML

Today, a couple of packages were stolen from our apartment doorstep shortly after being delivered. A little while later, the thief brought the torn packaging back and left them at the bottom of our stairs. FML

Today, someone stole a package off my doorstep. Too bad, it was the video doorbell to prevent my packages from being stolen. FML

Today, I got a notification from a delivery carrier that my package had been delivered. I opened the door to find a perfectly wrapped box with no address, no label, and a note inside saying, "You’ll know when it’s time." I still don’t know what it means. FML

Today, the mailman delivered my new phone to my neighbour's house. This was okay, because he left a note in my mailbox informing me so. Now my crazy neighbour won't give me the package because, "*I* signed for it!" FML

Before calling the police I'd check with the apartment manager. Sometimes they accept packages on behalf of residents/store packages in the office for safekeeping.

It was probably a prank someone pulled on you. Try to find who sent the package

This exact same thing happened to me. UPS just insisted that once it was marked delivered, it was out of their hands. I suspect it's the guy who drives my route because this I never received another package several weeks later.

Over here, it is actually illegal to leave packages at the door or give them to a neighbour without your express consent...

So many package at the back door jokes running through my head.

My family was just discussing how people dropping off packages dont seem to care uf the owners get it or not. Leaving it out means anyone can take it. Dont they need signitures as well??

Once UPS dropped off a package at my house, and it was apparently a 2 package set. They didn't give us the second but marked both off as delivered. We had to call them and fight with them until they admitted they lost it and would let us know when they found it.
