You could surely hide it easily enough in the cardboard? Just wrap it over in parcel tape. The people at the other end will just assume you went a bit overboard in packing.

I think it's safe to assume that the returned item gets taken out of the box that you ship it back to them in, which is then discarded (along with the taped-on tracking device).

GPS emits an EMF, should be easy catch if you are trying.

Also, I wonder if you can catch it with batteries. Does amazon make the seller list the type of battery in their product?

I very much doubt any returns are scanned for GPS wavelength EMF.

this sounds like someone who isn’t thinking about all the edge cases for nuts returning stuff. i would not be surprised if there was a protocol in place for screening against all kinds of things (with emf being the small potatoes)

[rantwasp]

yes. that’s why i said that it should be caught but probably is not.

it’s also probably borderline illegal to do this kind of things
