The seller(from canada to US) used my address as the return address, and used a fake address as delivery, so that it would return eventually to me. Took almost 2 weeks for a 3-4 day delivery. I dont know if there is any benefit to vedors doing this, but I think it could put ME at risk. Why do this shit??
Whoa, that's fucked up and definitely not common. I've never heard of that. Originally i figured they used your addy for both (which I've sent letters this way, non-dmn of course). This is absolute shit and an absolute risk. VERY bad. While technically it would probably make it to you given the addy was entirely fake, this creates an "exception" in the mail stream and this goes against what we want. We want mail to arrive as it normally arrives, not create exceptions. This brings extra scrutiny to the pack. Awful.
Name and shame.
