It happened again

[BigUnionGuy]

UPS employees use fake addresses to scam thousands from company


This comes up about every 5 years.


The funny thing is....

It's usually a collaboration between hourly's and management.


Enjoy prison.

really? it sounds like a couple of QA clerks were intentionally address correcting to the wrong address, the driver unknowingly DRing them per methods, and then the QA clerks/preload buddies going to get them.

 

[BigUnionGuy]

It's like the oldest "trick in the book" at UPS.

Do it once, you might get away with it.

$50,000 worth ?


Dumb enough.... to believe "it was" that smart.

(the perpetrators)


It's like UPS Security 101.

 

[Star B]

never said people were smart, however, you reap what you sow.

Happened here as well. It was a drive, clerk and a supervisor.

Address correction packages are supposed to be "signature required"

We are supposed to get a signature.

I had a new clerk "address correct" a package to the previous address the people lived at

Clerk problems, not mine.

 

[wayfair]

Clerk problems, not mine.

and that's why they're "signature required"

 

[PASinterference]

That's how I was trained.

I remember maybe 20 yrs ago that an address corrected pkg had to have a sig. Then about 5 yrs later, we were told we could dr them, I'm sure to reduce send agains. I guess every franchise is different.

They are going to get sent to an access point if no one's home.
Rather leave it at the "corrected" address than have someone deal with finding their package.
At least we can blame the clerk, not ourselves.

 

[Maplewood]

We are supposed to get a signature.

We are required to get a Sig however if you know the people or some of the normal packages have the exact same name I leave them. Bottom line, we can be disciplined and or held financially responsible for dr'ing Sig required pkgs. You all signed stuff in a class when you were new. That was part of it.

 

[HEFFERNAN]

In 17 years, I've never looked at an address corrected package and said to myself "Damn, I got to get a signature" !!!
You deliver the box, get back in your truck and go. You are not held accountable because it was corrected.
If you get a message from the OMS or a followup, it's treated as a regular bad address and you retrieve it.
