Quote:Originally Posted by Bronte I've been running into this problem with the USPS a lot on stuff that needs signatures. I understood them signing when COVID was running wild like Hulkamania, but at least knock on the door and see if someone answers. FedEx waits to see if I answer before leaving a package that requires a signature, and UPS has been spotty. Sometimes they wait for me, other times they leave a notice if I'm not home, and then there are times when UPS leaves a notice then drops the package off the next day without my signature. I'm not seeing the purpose of having a required signature if the delivery person is going to be the one signing. |

My fedex guy always gets my signature, but NEVER rings my door bell. I asked him why he won't ring the bell but he mumbled something and stays with the physical knock. The usps guy typically gets my signature, but this is first time I have no idea why no signature from me. I try to offer drinks whenever I see him. Last person I want to piss off. Ups guy always stacks boxes next to door and since my door opens outward, I can't open my door all the way. I think he takes pleasure in it. |

@EbayMafia Never heard of that before. But I also don't have children or know any kids. Interesting nevertheless.... |

@Bronte Interestingly, salespeople are often taught to knock first rather than ring the doorbell. Theoretically it's helpful to starting off the interaction on a more friendly/familiar basis...the idea being that friends knock and strangers ring doorbells. Also you don't disrupt dogs and babies in every room of the house. | ||

@EbayMafia My house is kinda large though. If you knock, you won't hear tbe knock if you are in bedrooms or in kitchen. While I see where your coming from, it is definitely not a catch all solution. |

Doesn't deserve its own thread but I felt that since i almost fell for it, it might be a good idea to post. I got a email stating that it needed my credit card to continue a shipment of a package. It didn't originate from a .gov account so I backed out before sending my credit card info. ![]() ![]() |

Would a USPS email ever come from a .gov address? Certainly not the .nl in your screenshot, but the USPS website is a .com. | ||

Yes, it's always important to look at who an email came from (both the name and the address) and who else it went to along with the actual content. | ||

My wife has a USPS account; I'd have to ask her. I do get emails from FedEx whenever I have a package heading to me, whether I knew the package was sent or not. Those are strictly tracking info emails as best I can remember. | ||
