The doorstep crime wave: why your packages are actually disappearing
The first time, it was some footwear that mysteriously vanished. I had ordered it online, received a message specifying which parcel delivery firm had the honour, then another a few days later informing me that my item had been “delivered”. Fortunately, I was at home to intercept the package. Except that when I opened the front door – minutes after hearing the glad tidings of its arrival – there was nothing there.
