That you didn't order or get charged for? Wife got a pair of lighted chopsticks a week ago and two pair today. I told her to throw them away as who knows why they were sent.

Yep but now I don't recall what it was. It may have been a phone case. Whatever it was it was something I had no use for.

Sometimes the shipping folks mess up. Ordered a fishing rod once, they sent three. Ordered a temp sensor for tractor, they sent a bag of 10. Unless you mean random items that you never ordered, I’ve never got anything like that.

One day, out of the blue, my wife got a box from Amazon and it contained a brand new head for a La Crosse stick.

Figure that one out...

Got a fake Cartier ring from Amazon one time. My son is a watchmaker for them so I sent him a pic and he recognized the box as fake right away.
I sent it to him and he gave it to the company, they wanted to see it.

My BIL got a box not that long ago that had a 3 or 4 random things in it he never ordered. He was not charged for them. He calle about returning them and they said they had no record of shipping them to him so they technically didn't exist.

A couple of years ago we started receiving multiple packages a day from Amazon without ordering or paying for them. We reported it to Amazon and they said it was likely a “brushing” scam, you can Google it. They told us to do what we wanted with the items. We received dozens of items before they finally got it stopped. Most of them were useless to us and got thrown in the trash can. I think about the only thing we kept was a digital thermometer for checking to see if someone has fever.

My wife had a similar thing happen to her at her work. This was right around the time of covid so she was working from home. When she went back to work she found her office half full of amazon packages. She contacted them and got the same response. Most of it was useless junk but there were a few small things in there worth keeping. It seems it's some kind of scam aimed at adding to their positive reviews. Ever since then I have been very skeptical about reviews on that site and I definitely read through them vs just buying something that is "highest rated". Next time a seller wants to include us in their scam I hope it is one selling outdoorsy products lol.

I just pick them up off the streets at daylight. They get on pavement and they're lost!

My wife ordered some vitamin stuff, instead she got a replacement motor oil dipstick....she called the order center in Mumbai and got it sorted.... Apparently the order center figured out to use a texting process instead of hearing "what?" all day, lol

Was told she could keep the dipstick, she said that's ok I'm already married to one... grin

If my wife doesn't get a package from Amazon every few days. They send out a guy to check see if she is ok. LMAO..

She does have a nice captains log book they shipped her, to log her cruises. Be nice if she had ordered it and was a charter boat captain.

Hadn't ordered any thing from Amazon in a while and I got a package that had 2 deflated footballs in it. Still sitting here in box for several months. Went thru that with Walmart, wife ordered a pair of leggings and she got a pair 3 days in a row. Contacted Walmart and they said forget it.
