Beware - thieves following UPS and FedEx trucks
It seems that some low life thugs are into a lucrative business - following UPS and FedEx trucks and scooping up packages left on door steps, usually within seconds of the truck leaving !

"I was shocked," she said. "I can't believe someone would follow the UPS guy and go up and down the street like it's their own personal shopping store and take everything."

The only thing I can say i get one of those trail camera's from a big box store and mount it around your front porch to take pictures when movement is detected - a cheap one will run you about 50 bucks.

very sad...this is how things began to fall apart in south america when the economic crisis of the 1970s and 80s destroyed the working class

Once a group of people realize they can just take stuff that before people took for granted were safe, such as packages...once trust breaks down that way, it is nearly impossible to get that genie back in the bottle

once a generation grows up watching their older brothers and parents successfully living off theft of this kind, the problem becomes entrenched

It called 'tipping' and has been going on for some time now, of course during the holidays all the trash comes out

Re: Beware - thieves following UPS and FedEx trucks
This is also happening in The Seattle/Tacoma area. Also some people I know in Portland, OR says its being reported there as well.

Is this happening in metropolis areas all over the US? If so, maybe it's gangs jacking shit to resell on ebay or something? Like the last 6 years or so street gangs seem to be more crafty then in the past decades.

In the USA with no good community centers, no loving caring intelligent people, and no real social welfare, and no land to grow your own vegetables... all makes thieves.

Yep. The idea of ordering valuable merchandise and having it delivered to your home reliably and without anyone fucking with it is very much a first world concept. As such, it is actually a rarity in the world. In South America, someone earlier on in the delivery chain would steal whatever you ordered long before it ever got to the actual delivery guy.

No Joke. Just a month or two again a local corner store owner got caught taking all the papers out of the vending machine from the corner, then selling the papers in store. guess what, he's a South American immigrant. Turns out he'd been dong it long enough to make an estimated $4,000. That's a lot and a long time. Daily paper is 75cents here.
