My wife has been receiving mystery packages? - My wife has recently started receiving a number of mystery packages in the mail. Started with a random box from Talbots for some pricey boots, then another pair of shoes arrived from the same store. The packages were addressed to her, but she didn't order them, shoes aren't even close to her size and she's never shopped there before so she's not even sure how they would have her address. Recently a $700 coat arrived at our doorstep with the same scenario, but it had no receipt and isn’t a brand that Talbots sells.
We immediately checked all recent transactions on her Credit Cards and accounts and nothing was out of the ordinary. We pulled her credit report from all 3 bureaus and nothing was opened under her name. We called Talbots and they said there were actually 6 packages in the order total (only received the two), and they gave her the phone number and email address and last four digits of the card and none of the info matched hers, but the address for shipping was hers. Her last name is extremely unique and it’s doubtful there was a data issue.
Anyone have any ideas of what might be going on?Personal Finance
