re: What to do with a FedEx package I received to my address addressed to a name I don't know

Figured this was an interesting idea. Tried it, and nothing came back for the last name.
They must be way off on this miss.

I've never dealt with Verizon in any way whatsoever. They shouldn't even have my address. It is just annoying.
A cursory look on the Googler shows a bunch of complaints about that returns center. Sounds about right.
Check with your post office and make sure your address hasn't been forwarded. I'm dead serious, do this immediately.
Someone stole my identity several years ago and the first clue was we got several items mailed to our address that we didn't order. Cell phone plans opened in my name. Even had a brand new cell phone (it wasn't Verizon; I think it may have been T-Mobile). New phone and cell account opened in my name.
What they do is open credit cards and accounts with online companies and mail shite to your address. But before that they go to the post office, as you, with some form of ID and get your mail forwarded to a random empty house across town. So when the shite gets "mailed" to your house it actually goes to the house of their choosing. Thankfully, I think they had the stuff sent a little too quickly so I actually received it at my house before it was able to be forwarded. Also thankful that we caught it pretty quickly. And it was actually more of a pain for me to get shite straightened out and get my address reinstalled than it was for the a-hole who changed it in the first place.
Then I had to contact the post office, BRPD, USPS Inspector office, credit companies, etc. to try to get everything straight. It was one of the biggest pains in my arse ever. But it started with getting shite shipped/mailed to my house without me ordering anything.

Start a YouTube channel, go live, and let us watch the opening and reveal. Super Overreact to EVERYTHING you do. Like how obviously hard it is to open, and how absolutely amazing it is when you first glance it. Then string us along for 5 minutes as you talk about how you can't believe you got this thing and such... then show us the random paper inside that ultimately told you about your car's extended warranty.

My uncle was a VP at UPS, he told me people are copying CCs, buying goods on the card, have it shipped to your address with their name. They come by and pick it up without your knowledge of knock on the door and ask for it. This was maybe 6/7 years ago but your story reminded me of what he said.

“Return to sender. Addressee unknown” is what I always wrote on all the important looking mail I would get when living in apartments.

You have a cousin named Jordan?

My identity got stolen and a similar thing happened. They opened credit cards in my name and the first clue was I got a random item shipped to me. I called the company because I hadn’t ordered it and they told me about my new store credit card that was charged to within a few dollars of its max.
It was a huge pain to fix, too. The company denied my fraud claim a few times because the one thing I received at my real address made me look complicit.
Definitely check on your address/credit report.

Does the package have angel wings on it?

I received a Weber table top gas grill during Bag Flu panic time. We kept it. $300 grill.

your wife ordered the super extra large dildo
leave her package alone, its not supposed to be for you
seriously though, we sometimes get stuff like that with our address but not our name. just open it and keep it or throw it away. the person who ordered something will get a refund or new package sent to their address.

Is it possible that it is for someone that lived at your address before you did? If not, then keep it until new year’s eve and blow it up with some fireworks.

A couple of Russian guys with neck tattoos are going to come to your house looking for their package.

Is there a blacked out suburban parked on the street? You may have to blow up your house if so. They know.

This happened to me a couple of years ago. A large box from Chewy showed up - wrong name, right address. I contacted Chewy and they said they’d contact the orderer and FedEx. Sure enough, FedEx came and picked up the box. Two days later, the same box with some additional labels showed up. This was a heavy box but I didn’t have any pets at the time.
I treated it like a door prize for some dog owning in-laws who drove a long distance for Thanksgiving. After the meal, we gathered round the box and opened it. It was full of boxes of top of the line dogfood…the kind that looks like fresh ground beef. They were very happy.
I’m not necessarily proud of the whole episode but I’m not ashamed about it, either.

Did you just recently move to that address? Any return label with an address on there? If none to those questions then drop it off at fedex office
