[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 440047, member: 13254"] The insurance is for damage or loss of a package, there is no way UPS can insure against fraud on the part of consignee or shipper. The prompts for wine says an ID may be required. I'm pretty sure that in Texas if a person appears to be under the age of 26 we are required by law to ask for ID before making the delivery. This smae prompt comes up on other controlled substances and sometimes on high value packages as well. We are not trained to spot fraudulent documents such as checks or money orders, unless there is something glaringly wrong with a money order, how could we ever know? IMO, the driver involved here should be counseled on how to CYA while making a delivery away from the address on the package (ask for ID), especially if he does not personally know the receiver. In no way do I feel that the driver should be held accountable for the 10 grand. Remember the driver was sent a message to meet the receiver. I agree that in many cases of "meeting the consignee", if they show up at the meet point, have money orders totaling the correct amount, they are usually the one the package is supposed to be delivered to. But on $10k, I think I would ask for that ID. [/QUOTE]
