I have the same experience, with one or two USPS fake deliveries. None from UPS that I can recall (but fewer packages overall than USPS). Meanwhile Fedex Ground has seemingly adopted a policy of doing whatever it takes to mark a package as delivered, including just leaving them down by the road where they can be easily stolen.

It's all down to your individual carriers and local depot management though. My local Fedex Ground depot doesn't seem to care at all, so my only recourse is to avoid having things I care about shipped Fedex. Which by itself is another reason the USPS needs to be kept operating - so at least we have three options instead of the characteristic duopoly of modern antitrust enforcement.
