FBI: Delivery drivers involved in Amazon theft ring

I often get packages marked as delivered, then when I call Amazon to ask where the package is, they call the driver and then come back saying that the driver decided not to deliver the package and instead just marked it delivered.

This is considered a satisfactory resolution by Amazon. There's no shock from their representative, there's no apology. This is just a normal thing that happened. They don't really care what these delivery people are doing.

I used to get this with my local mail carriers a lot. My block was one of the last stops for them so if it got too late they would just mark it delivered and actually deliver it the next business day. The post office did not seem to care either.

It's usually just drivers trying to meet quota, not thieves.

I'm not saying they're thieves. I'm saying Amazon has created an environment where it would be easy for thieves to get away with it.
