Today I got a package that was addressed to me but had misspelled my first name. When I opened it up, it was a "doorstop alarm", which I hadn't ordered.
There wasn't any return or "from" address or name, so I'm not sure who sent this to me.
This is the first time this has happened to me, so I'm quite confused. Is this some sort of scam I'm not aware of?
Ccp at it againnn
I don't understand why they don't just send it to themselves
Because the platform probably checks the send address before allowing a review or something.
Really confident assassin wants you to know he’s coming?
It could be a hidden camera.
Thanks for the replies everyone. To be on the safe side, I chucked it out.
There's a whole bunch of the doorstops on eBay if you search it up, so it may have been the brushing scam. Hopefully not an assassin though!
Secret Santa came late to deliver by Auspost.
Businesses that provide unsolicited goods and services to consumers can recover those goods/services up to three months from the day after the goods/services were received. This is known as the ‘recovery period’.
If you contact the business in writing and advise that you do not want the unsolicited goods/services, the recovery period is reduced to one month.
During this time, you cannot unreasonably refuse to allow the supplier to recover the products from you, and if you damage the goods during this period, you may be liable to pay compensation.
If the unsolicited goods have not been collected in the recovery period, you can keep the goods without any obligation to pay.
Note: You are not entitled to keep products if they were not intended for you, for example, the packaging was clearly addressed to another person.
