Had a Package sent to me with my Reddit user name on it, I thought USPS monitored your packages and didn't deliver with names they haven't seen before?

I had a redditor send me something via USPS. It was nothing illegal, just posted for a hard to find piece of computer hardware and someone hooked me up and sent it to me for free.

I was very grateful, I pm'ed them my address, but totally forgot to give them my name.

When the package showed up it was addressed to "DickCheeseOnMyChest"

I thought USPS kept track of like which names go to which houses and such, making sure to not deliver mail to somebody who doesn't live there.

If this package went through, why does everybody not suggest using a fake name when ordering?

If you just ordered something and put your name as "Ryan Jackson" what would stop it from going thru? What's the drawbacks from using a fake name?

I think the idea is that when your sending something that is possibly contraband, you don’t want to heighten your risk profile by introducing unknown variables. When you send something innocuous, there is no additional risk/consequences associated with aforementioned contraband. So worst case scenario it is opened, repackaged and returned to sender—meaning nothing is lost and no one goes to jail.

Is this guy trolling? But maybe using a username instead of a fake name gives usps the impression it’s ur username online and shrugs it off.

Account age 12h, no other posts and no way a package would have arrived by now, smh the shit posts are getting worse

Since when does usps have a record or every single person who lives at every single house?

And they must update it daily?

Fake names are best. If it's CD you don't have to accept it, then it's gunna be extremely hard to prosecute you.

Just like cheating on your gf, Deny til you die

This confirms, perhaps your name truly is DickCheese OnMyChest; it is the only answer.

That is hilarious, I think the USPS workers thought it was hilarious.

I've never once used my real name on an order. There is no chance ur postman can keep track of what names usually get mail at a certain address. This has always made zero sense to me

Usps required by law to deliver no matter the name.

For many many Moon, I had many many magazine subscription sent to my mothers house to a man named Smokey mcpot.

I've ordered amazon packages to "ass face" and gotten them, lol. It's not a huge deal, really. Obviously safer to use real name, though. If it is a real-sounding name, the mail carrier could get suspicious, as they're not familiar with the name. If it is obviously a username of some sorts, that is fairly commonplace.
