    Obviously working the system as mentioned by someone else, but I will say as someone in shipping, if we find an empty package, we still at least get it to the area station if not the actual customer so a claim can be made by them. It does no good to not send it through at all, as then no one has any idea where it is.

    Also, a good place for a reminder, make sure your stuff is packaged well. While this seems to be a fake thing to bump ratings, cheap packages and tape fail A LOT in going from here to there, and even in the case of theft (which does happen), a securely closed package is a lot less enticing than one that’s partially open. I just saw one last week that looked a lot like this, but was certainly a legit shipping. Hoping it wasn’t medication, but it simply was a badly sealed envelope that came open and lost its contents somewhere. Probably under a belt somewhere, with no markings to trace it back to be recovered (which is also a good idea, have a phone number or address in a few places inside, not just on the outside).
