IF SOMEONE IS TAKING MY MAIL, WHAT IS THIS CRIME CALLED?\nThe crime is called mail theft or mail tampering\n\nWHAT IS THE PENALTY FOR THIS CRIME?\nThe USPS guidelines are 5 years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines.\n\nHOW DO I REPORT IT?\nTo report mail theft, vandalism, or mail tampering go to https://www.usps.com/postalinspectors/mailthft/default.htm and click on the link at the bottom that says 'Mail Theft, Vandalism or Mail Tampering'. You will be taken to an online form that you can fill out with all of the information that you have about this. If you'd rather not send the form over the internet go to https://www.usps.com/postalinspectors/mailthft/2016.pdf and print a copy to send through the mail. It's probably faster and safer to send it online though. \n\nTo find the nearest Postal Inspector to you go to http://www.usps.com/ncsc/locators/find-is.html and type in your city or zip code. It will then give you the address and phone number to contact them at for more information.\n\nHere's some more information:\nhttp://www.usps.com/websites/depart/inspect/safemail.htm\nhttp://www.usps.com/websites/depart/inspect/tipthief.htm\nhttp://www.usps.com/websites/depart/inspect/tipvandl.htm\n\nI hope this helps and I hope you get the issue resolved as soon as possible. Good luck!!

It looks like if it's recieved at the wrong address--- then you can throw it away -- if you open it, it's punishable by 10 years and a very hefty fine....I can't find if throwing it away is considering tampering or not...your best bet would be to simply write "return to sender" or "does not live her" on the form and put it back in the drop box

oh, sorry. that went to the wrong person. jk lol. but seriously, if you have the e-mail address you can do a reverse email lookup. or you can report it to the police and have them get someone to track the IP back.

The only ones who can answer that are the UPS people.\n\nCall 1-800-PICK-UPS.  When you get the recorded message, press zero until you get a customer service rep.\n\nThey won't be helpful, but hopefully, you'll get an answer to your question.\n\nIf they say you owe, then call the shipper.  If you sent payment through the mail or with a Postal Money Order, they may have committed a federal crime if they implied that the shipping would be paid in full and it wasn't.\n\nEven if you paid some other way, you could still have recourse.  Make sure you keep the receipt if you end up having to pay for shipping.\n\nmany mail order companies believe that they won't be sued for such things since they aren't in your area, but they are wrong.  If you need advice on how to persue recourse against the shipper, feel free to e-mail me.

Clarify your question with specifics on the scam mail. Depending on the nature of the mail, it might be appropriate for you to contact your local law agency, your postmaster, or simply throw it away as junk mail.\n\nMany people claim that they are the victims of mail fraud or scams when they don't really fit the criteria.

communications in email are not protected nor private. so if you admit to commiting a crime to someone in an email. police cn use that email against you.

I believe it's called mail-fraud.

You put in mailbox with a statement clearly written on it that the person is no longer at the address.\n\nThe statement doesn't need any specific phrase - just something that is clear to the mail handlers.\n\nAddressee Unknown\nPerson no longer at this address\netc..\n\nThe USPS will then handle it from there.\n\nPS: Don't open it - as this is illegal. Not even the Post Office can open your mail - unless the outer packaging is shredded somehow and they need to get delivery information (either sender or addressee).

I also receive such mail usually from overseas. You can call your local law enforcement and they will tell you where to report this. They are very familiar with this scam.

You could be on the "bcc" list of these emails. In this case you are just secrectly copied. Nobody except the sender will know.

I think maybe you should just send it to the post office, they can find the person and forward whatever it is to them.  I doubt they'll give you this person's address, though.

I'll assume you know which prison the offender is in, their offender ID number, the date of their parole hearing, and the mailing address of the parole board in your state. I'll further assume that either you or a person close to you were the victim of this offender's crime. Simply state how this crime has negatively affected your life or the life of your loved one, and your belief that this offender remains a threat to society. Even better than a letter would be your appearance in person at the parole hearing.

About three days only. Do some checking, who knows they delivered your mail at the wrong house. It could happen sometimes. A couple of times I received a mail that doesn't belong to me. It's to our neighbors. All I did is return it to the right person the day I got them in the mail. There must be some who just don't care in this world so please do some checking.

It is a federal felony offense.  You should inform your local postmaster along with the police and let them handle it.

depends what country you live in\n\nthough i would suspect it is illegal in most countries.\n\nThey should just put "return to sender" or "not known at this address" and put them back in the post\n\nbetter still get your mail diverted it doesnt cost much\n\nhttp://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/jump2?catId=400040&mediaId=600008
