So what should UPS do? Open a box because someone claimed something potentially illegal is in the box? What if UPS does not have the tools or right to open the container and determine that the thing is actual illegal drugs, do they now need a drugs lab and drugs experts?

Isn't more simple and correct that you contact police directly, present the evidence, have the authorized person to decide if the thing you claim is illegal or that the evidence is convincing then intercept the package.

UPS already doesn't consider their customers packages private property and does in fact open boxes that are deemed suspicious. But even then, cloudflare isn't even doign the latter. They aren't bringing this information to the police, they are continuing to collect money from the phisher and stonewalling OP until he shows up with a lawyer and a much bigger can of worms for them.
You are ignoring my main point, CloudFlare should act for each complaint? Like some Skyrim modder bitches that someone stole a texture from his mod , then what ? An employee starts an investigation to determine who is right?

Like in the case with a website, some dude complains that some other dude stole some css, now you need a detective to find the real author, licenses and then detect if is fair us ... this seems to be a job for police/justice. It is not a clear case like you are hosting an entire Disney movie.
