Coincidence Or Coordination?

Okay, so this is a very, very odd situation. I'm sorry for being vague, but I want to attempt to keep any localization down to a minimum.

In my local area, there have been several people using the markets. Sometime earlier this year, someone decided not to go domestic, went balls-out, and ordered a large amount of something from a suspicious location. The package was searched, and the product was discovered. The buyer received a love letter, and everything was quiet for some time.

Before then, domestic orders that were less subtle and more risky were carried out successfully, and all was good, the problem only arose after a non-domestic order was made. Several months later, market activity in my area arose again, in products that would be near-impossible to discover. This was done successfully a handful of times through multiple parties, until something with the very slight potential of being discovered was attempted. It did not make it successfully.

No love letter was received by that party, and was initially shrugged off as bad luck, though the order was made in a very, very small quantity, and through a very, very well reviewed, trusted vendor. However, without coordination, another order through another party had been made (through the same post office). This order was something that under normal circumstances, would have not been confiscated without some level of extremely bad luck. The package was found and confiscated.

What action needs to be taken by all parties? Is this a scenario that has occurred before? Is this something that needs to be taken into consideration when ordering?

In this scenario, the parties were lucky enough to have communication with one another. This is something that could be occurring on a daily basis without knowledge, and give explanation for several missing, confiscated, and discovered packages using even the best of stealth.

Could post offices be screening packages after finding illicit products en-route to other nearby addresses? This is a terrifying revelation. What are your opinions?

Try to look at it a LEO POV. You mention that the seized packages were both large amounts. They might think that an organization is at work. Asking the postal inspector to pay closer attention is a easy but productive step.

Another idea. You speak of all parties as if they're familiar to you. Possible CI situation as well.

Could be even simpler. First letter was noticed and local postal workers are excited and on alert now catching the second package. Bored ass workers with something to do now.

The least step everyone involved is arranging drops outside of that P.O. Are they getting caught there or the local distribution center is something else to consider. I truly doubt your local is the one. Staff just isn't trained for that.

If laying low is possible, def do that. If it is an organization, reconsider your runners.

Most certainly they will do this. In Germany they don't care so much for drugs but weapons but if they suspect something going on in a particular post station they have internal units who will monitor the traffic in a distribution center. If a pattern is discovered further investigation will be initialized. Lay low and stop ordering large quantities via the post - its extremely reckless and if the police would care even one second they could fuck you hard without much effort. In the USA this would mean serious prison time.

Package profiling is likely your culprit. Quit now while you're ahead.

Of course the post office is more likely to screen packages after larger seizures. IF they are going to use their resources it would be wise for them to use it with atleast a basic knowledge drugs may be coming into the area rather then blindly screening.

ESPEICALLY if your in a small shitty suburban town where cops and po have nothing better to do.

Its pretty easy to profile DNM packages.. start with any package without printed postage, non parcels i.e. envelopes, priority flat rates with little weight to them, anything mailed through a blue box and not at the usps pos stand

id like to assume youve changed names/addresses of recipient each time this happened. if you didnt, thats your problem.

if you are using a fake name/address as your recipient, thats also probably why. your mailmans entire life/job is knowning names and address of his route. you dont think he notices when you, john smith, get boxes for Abe lincoln? or when you get mail to an abandoned home?

furthurmore, they probably just know whats going on amongst you and your group of people. no worries though. if they wanted to bring you down, they just deliver the package, wait 20mins or shit, a day or two, and bust everyone involved. police arent as dumb as we think.

my advice? never use the PO in your town. ever. Go out of town, set up a PO box with no formerly associate names or anyone elses knowledge. I bet youll have better luck.
