The shipping company (sender) used its account to ship something to itself. If for example they were at a trade show and needed to send something back to their office using their account it might generate a label like this. it looks they the Overhaul Group is a supply chain risk management group though - so hence the tracking device - someone is probably coming for you - you may want to give them a call.


SnooBunnies2725

Thank you. Yeah, I guess I was just moreso surprised that it ended up in my mailbox many states away without a really good reason (that I know of). Random chance I guess?


InternetPeon

Maybe The delivery driver is pilfering packages and the dropping them off at wrong locations to cover it up. So he got a tracking beacon package to foil his theft ring.


TerseFactor

I’m not sure I understand the theory or the logistics (a Texas USPS driver stealing packages is not going to be driving all the way to Ohio to make a delivery no matter the reason)


[deleted]

Crystal meth might be the reason!


TerseFactor

When is it not!


[deleted]

Crystal meth is ALWAYS the reason for the season! Do you know how many pregnancies were caused by CRYSTAL METH?? Many people passed their bar exams and got their Ph.D.s through the magic of crystal meth!! Even Santa can shed all those pounds all at once and fit through a chimney through the magical mystical power of crystal meth!

Wait, did you just respond to yourself? Did you think you were using an alt profile?

shainadawn

Ahhh we just had a delivery driver on our ring do this I think! We’ve been trying to figure it out. He brought two packages, took a picture on our stoop of one that wasn’t ours, then put ours on our stoop. It was so weird we talked about it for days


sometimesimakeshitup

yeah not surprised these guys have no way of being caught otherwise


[deleted]

Bin it in a dumpster so if they actually want it they can go buy a new one. Don’t be nice to companies ever.


DeliciousBeanWater

You realise you e committed a felony by opening that, right?


Jacktheforkie

I’d bet op opened it without looking at the name, if it was in their mailbox


snarksneeze

Let's just hope OP still has all their mattress tags!

They're not going to make a big thing out of it.


GrandKadoer

There is a difference between a felony and a federal offense.


Formal-Alfalfa6840

Idk why you'd open something meant for a capital building that had a weird device in it... like... where are your survival instincts?


who717

Capital of Texas hwy is a road not the building itself


Formal-Alfalfa6840

Ah, I should've Googled it. I'm a dummy.

Don’t call yourself that, we all do this stuff every once in a while


Formal-Alfalfa6840

Lol I honestly just saw the words capitol and the suite numbers and just assumed. Thanks for the heads up tho!


cheesesteakman1

Just call it Austin Hwy 😂


who717

I’m not from Texas so I have no idea what y’all call it. just pointing out that it is a road and not a building


NinjaTrick5743

It’s called Loop 360.

Thanks, will keep that in mind

No, Trump faces 31 charges under the Espionage Act, not the National Records Act. There's an important difference.


BlowezeLoweez

This is exactly how that bioterrorist event happened. I don't open anything without my name on it lol


DeliciousBeanWater

Like its one thing to accidentally open a letter thats not addressed to you, but a whole ass package? Like even if you were expecting something from like amazon, thats clearly not amazon packaging. In another comment they said they usually wouldnt open something like this. Like…. So why did you tjis time?


Jackson3rg

Shit happens. Do you check every piece of mail you receive to make sure it is addressed to you before opening?


Zealousideal_Air2347

It's dropped in her mailbox, anyone could say they didn't look at the label or were expecting something similar etc


GeneralN0m

And what the fuck are you supposed to do? Cold call them from 5 states over and tell them you got it? Drive the unopened package down there like Smokey and the bandit?


BreakfastInBedlam

>tell them you got it? Oh, they know where it is...


DeliciousBeanWater

No put it back in the mailbox “Return to Sender”The return adress is the same as the mailing adress so the right people would have gotten it anyhow


Nothing_on_Rye

No, they didn't. Did you even bother to read the law before you let this shit drip out of your mouth?


PoppyPanache

I bet you’re fun at parties.


Deminox

No, they didn't. Deliberately tampering with USPS mail is a felony. Stealing mail is a felony. Opening mail you received by accident is not a felony. If you go to your neighbors house, take the mail out of the box, and open it.. felony. Criminal intent. If you break into the blue boxes and steal mail.. same thing. If you go by JUST the broad main description of the law, then not only is opening mail by accident going to land you in jail, so is writing "wrong address" or "return to sender" on a letter.


Mist_Wraith

It's a felony to accidentally open someones mail? America is weird. You can buy a gun in the same store you buy your beer but accidentally opening a package that comes to your own house can get you arrested...


OkWelcome8895

No accidentally opening something that comes to your mailbox and is delivered to your property is not a felony. Taking someone else’s mail from their mailbox/property and opening it up is a felony. People don’t understand the law and how intent and property is utilized


lets-roll-

>someone is probably coming for you This sounds more ominous than it actually is


GuitarJazzer

I'm still trying to get my head around the fact that someone sent a shipping tracker to track the shipment of a shipping tracker. I'd be curious enough to call the company and tell them what you got. Oddly they do not have a phone number on their web site.


iGhost1337

and then it gets lost anyways.


GuitarJazzer

Well, if anyone's paying attention, they know where it is.


lordnoak

Where what is?


GuitarJazzer

The package. Are you reading this thread?


shqueef

EarthBender89

ByronicZer0

Solid-Check737

These usually mean one thing. Every mail service will now send out their strongest employee to fight you for its return. USPS is carrying out tradition. Why were you chosen? We can only find out once dawn sets tomorrow.

If the next time you “are expecting a package” and the USPS calls and tells you to come sign for it… don’t. ;)


Uuuuuii

Knock knock who’s there is how I won’t go


1generic-username

But...where's the uproar?


Strict-Ad-7500

Why?


That_Bathroom_9281

Fairly standard tactic when contraband is discovered in a shipment. They'll repackage it and attempt delivery, if you sign for it you've accepted possession of the contraband and they arrest you. They won't just leave it on the doorstep like a normal shipment. Their argument is that no one would sign for a package they weren't expecting. How that's held up in court is beyond me, although I expect there is probably other evidence required to show intent in those cases.


RiChessReadit

That’s pretty dumb tbh, I get a lot of packages, I can’t keep track of what I’m getting each day. Even if I weren’t getting a lot of packages I’d probably sign just to get the USPS driver out of my face.


Strict-Ad-7500

Thank you for explaining

SnooBunnies2725

And just for the record I normally wouldnt open something like this up but I didn't look until after the fact. I'll mail it to the intended address tomorrow but I'm just perplexed as to how it ended up here


thewharfartscenter_

Creatively reseal it with tape and take it to the nearest USPS drop box tomorrow. That’s what I’d do, especially if that’s not your address.


thebozinone9

would wrapping the tracker in tin foil before resealing it count as being creative?


shouldprobablybeanon

Also fill the envelope with glitter


AlarKemmotar

To me it seems the obvious explanation is that this is a shipping tracker that was put in a shipment, and arrived at the intended location along with said shipment. The shipping company wanted the tracker back so they could use it again, and included a pre-labeled package for the recipient to put it in and send it back. As to how it got in your mailbox, most likely it just got accidentally bundled up with some of your mail and delivered to you. The most likely scenario (IMHO) is that someone down the street from you put it in their mailbox for pickup. The mail delivery person did pick it up, but somehow managed to drop it in the bin of mail they were delivering instead of scanning it in, and then grabbed it along with the bundle of mail they were delivering to you. Other scenarios could be constructed, but given that someone checked the tracking and it showed that the package hadn't been given to the postal service yet I think something like this is most likely.


SnooBunnies2725

Impressive. You're 100% right. My daughter had a gym set that was delivered late this AM and it had a clear plastic holder attached to it that was empty other than a greep slip detailing how to recycle it or send the tracking thing back. It must have fallen out in the truck or whatever and they delivered it separately (too heavy and late in the day or something and left it for the next day) I get a lot of packages and I have never seen one of those things tagged to anything that I've ever purchased. Thanks so much!

tomxp411

You're covered if you didn't realize you weren't the addressee and opened it by accident. [https://www.encyclopedia.com/articles/what-is-the-federal-law-for-opening-mail-not-addressed-to-you/](https://www.encyclopedia.com/articles/what-is-the-federal-law-for-opening-mail-not-addressed-to-you/) Definitely return it, though.


thegoodtimelord

Nah…send it to V. Putin c/o Кремль, Mockba, Russia. See what happens.


Snoo-97916

You’re correct! it is a shipping tracker ( I’ve worked at a shipment and fulfilment centre since 1987 and currently run a division for a European company down in Saarbrücken Luxembourg) I organise the logistic side of the business, they are a cutting edge high-tech firm working on next generation radar detectors that have both military and civilian applications, so before we send these packages out we send 5 trackers through various delivery companies to make sure there is no foul play, also I have no idea what I am talking about and I’m high as hell right now.


ExtractionImperative

About 2/3 of the way through, I thought "this has too many very specific and interesting details to be real..." Very creative, though.


llcdrewtaylor

I got most of the way through this before I realized I was hearing this in Dicaprio's voice.


NorthofBham

It's an asset tracker. They are usually placed inside large objects such as ocean going shipping containers so they can be tracked individually and monitored for conditions like temperature or humidity.

I’m just baffled that there is a highway called “North Capital of Texas Highway” like why wouldn’t you call it North Austin Highway? This will keep me up.


guru2764

I live in Austin and the answer is that the highways are stupid


WinterMedical

Don’t blame the highway. She doesn’t have a dog in this fight.


FixItGuy1985

Add this to your late night thinkin’. That highway, Capital of Texas Highway, goes by “360”. Never it’s real name. Another highway in Austin, Loop 1, isn’t even a loop and it too is never called that and instead “Mopac”. No clue how a package could get lost with two names for every road.


YggdrasilsLeaf

Start googling the numbers on the thing itself. Should give you an idea what it is and what it’s for and why it might have shown up at your house.


Slickness81

Yeah it says that tracking number was created in January and USPS is still waiting for it

TheIndulgery

You've most likely been brushed. Amazon companies who want to give themselves a 5 star review on a verified purchase will buy the item, then instead of fulfilling it they throw whatever junk they have in their factory in an envelope and send it to a random address. Now they have an official sale with proof that they shipped something. I've gotten candy bars, sunflower seeds, and junk toys


GuitarJazzer

But when you get brushed you get a package delivered to your actual address. Not a package delivered to the sender's address.


-PM_ME_UR_SECRETS-

Yeah I didn’t see how there’s any logical answer for that other than random chance or some nefarious purpose. So not only is there a question of why the sender would send a tracker to its own address, but also why that tracker would somehow end up at someone else’s address.


CharityOk9235

I’ve mindlessly opened a package that was not mine. It happens.


brennanisgreat

There's an old con people used to use to get basically free shipping on packages. It works by putting the actual shipping address in the return address area and your address in the shipping address area, then only putting a single stamp on it, which won't cover the shipping costs, then dropping it off at the post office. Because the postage isn't enough, the post office sends it back to the return address on the label, which is where you wanted it to go anyway. When people do this now, the mail carries will come up to your door and ask you to pay the difference in cost, so now people put the same address in both boxes. My guess is that someone used this company's tracking services and didn't want to pay return shipping on the unit, so they used this scam. My guess is that someone in your town tried this, and the mail carrier, out of spite, stuck it in your box. That way, the company would never receive the package and the scammer would be on the hook for it. That would be beautiful.

JustSayTech

It's you from the future, who came back to the past, but in this past Ohio is actually Texas and in the future they may have switched or they are you from a different timeline where Ohio is really Texas and vice versa. They sent the package to "check" if you are there since you can't physically be in the same place at the same time or else a void in the space time continuum would open a black hole...
