Possible CD?

So I have been expecting this one package from Europe to arrive but despite some other packages from the same vendor having arrived in a timely manner previously, this recent one was taking it's sweet time - about a week or so late. Yesterday I see the mail truck out of my window and the following happens:

My landlord is nosy as hell and he was around. I saw him walk up to the mailman, who handed him a package, and some words were exchanged - I'm assuming he was asking if my landlord knew the name on the package. Then I see the landlord with the package still in his hands walking up to my front door. The mailman is following him. Landlord knocks, I open. The following conversation takes place:

L: holding up a brown large envelope Hi, do you know the name on this package?

Me: stares at the package Well yes, this is [the first name of my relative] who collects [certain things] and sometimes ships them to me [to avoid sales tax].

L: bends the package to check if what my relative collects could be in there Yes but what about the last name?

Me: I don't know. It must be misspelled.

L: Well it looks like the postage is due on this. Do you want to pay the guy?

I look at the package again, and then at the mailman who is just standing there looking at the ground. At this point I'm thinking landlord fuck off you cunt, stop touching the package, and asking all these questions, too. WTF?!

Me: No, I don't have any money on me right now.

Mailman: Well here's a slip. You can pay and pick it up later.

I take the slip and close the door, and start analyzing the following:

Am I being overly paranoid or was that a CD?

EDIT: Thanks to everyone, even people being dicks. Thanks also to /u/ayyyyyThrowaway. I do believe that if this was a CD then my landlord got inadvertently involved, because he's nosy and is always up in everyone's business. He just happened to be hanging around outside when the mailman came, and thought he would helpful in some way.

If it was a CD I don't think they would have had your land lord perform it. Probably just a weird mistake with your relatives package.

You already admitted you new what it was and that it was coming. Fuck it, pay the postage and go get it. I agree with degr3e, they wouldn't involve your landlord and they probably wouldn't give up so easy

Landlords tend to have this POTUS mentality thinking they're above all laws. They squeal when a lawyer or similar organization corrects their "perspective" on the law.

UPS tends to deliever the packages directly to landlord's office on the premise according to the notes UPS mailman left on your door. You just walk over and pick up the package. I agree tho, she should have butt off. Either she leave the package in her office for you to pick it up, or let the mailman do the fucking job.

Secondly, use your real name. That mailman will probably leave it near the door. You have every right to be paranoid as much as I am. It provides better protection allowing you to plan one-step ahead of the game. The best tacticians are often paranoid and pave way for victory.

Housing should be a right, not a privilege, as long you have the money. Not based on credit or employment history. Of course, sheelpes will never let that happen - just my two cents.

Should probably burn down your house, move to Panama, and dome yourself
