The typical complaint is that you're at home, waiting for a package. You check the tracking all day "on the truck". Then at one point, it says "no one home".

Uh... I've been at fucking home all day.

Or worse, see the truck drive by your house, followed by the tracking updated to "no one home".

That's a fake delivery attempt.

Can you email me the tracking number of the "fake" delivery to [email protected] ? I will pull GPS coordinates + other data for you, of where & when the delivery was made/attempted.

That sounds like my experience with FedEx. UPS at least usually knocks.
