Many post here that are either living in the Middle East or sending packages to the Middle East. I was not aware of the current retrictions due to the Conflict. Blame Iran and its daughters Hezbollah and the Houthis. Not the USPS.

What I do wish from the delivery services, is making sure that they identify on the packages they deliver, that is was them doing the delivery. I want to know who made the delivery, whether it was USPS or UPS or Walmart of Amazon.

I have been receiving packages from people with no idea who they are and no idea who made the delivery. It would be nice to have a phone 4 on the package so that they could be called back to take back the package they j8st delivered.

As of now, I have 4 packages with no idea about how to return it to its proper owner, or what delivery service to call back to take it from me.

Perhaps someone needs to start an “orphaned package’ service, where people can go to get their expected packages which went to the wrong place.

Any legit package will have a scan code. USPS, UPS or FedEx. Always stated under the scan bar. Some have two. UPS now sends packages to USPS to deliver. Anything you received without one, I wouldn’t open. Unless it has a return address and you know you ordered something from them.
