This is scary as people working at the shipping companies figure out that stealing packages is actually a DMZ of inter-mediation and for the most part they can get away with it.

I'm sure this refund kicked off a serious investigation inside of Amazon/FedEx/UPS as this has been getting pretty bad - so for us to notice theft with SOMEWHAT regularity, I imagine it has to be an insanely pervasive problem.

The Google Fi forums seem to mention the phone-then issue regularly... "I ordered Pixel 6 and never received it", etc. etc.
