to enrich themselves by stealing mail directly from hundreds of postal customers.”

See? They said they wanted to improve efficiency. Workers stealing directly from the customers is quite efficient.

“steal credit cards from the mail before the cards were delivered to the actual card holder.”

Wonder if this is the reason I had to cancel Crapitol One?

It would be interesting to see the demographics of those arrested and committing the crimes. I remember a postal employee telling me that in Philadelphia they had to quit mailing the minted money from the post office there because there was so much theft that the commodes were stopped up from them trying to flush the paper down them. The theft was primarily the Amish.

Seems pretty easy once they get the card. Just activate it by calling the telephone number on the card and entering the 16 digit card number and Voila! The delivery envelope lets them now a credit card is inside. I’m surprised that a better way to send customers their cards has been figured out.

Rest assured, citizen, that postal employees have far to much integrity to takes bribes to trash ballots.

It doesn't work that way unless the fraudsters can spoof the victims telephone number or have hacked their account.

I have one card, and the call has to be made from my own verified phone number.

Some years ago my buddy takes a call in the squad room from a teller at his bank. She alerts him that someone tried to negotiate his pay check. (got paid by check in those days and he was friends with the teller). He goes over to the postal inspection service across the street and they head out to his bank. The inspector shows the photo of the local postal delivery guy to the teller and she IDs him. So, they stake out his car on the property. He returns a few hours later and gets caught with a car full of purloined mail plus my buddy’s pay check. Off to the clink. My buddy said it was the easiest scratch he made!
