Package Theft / Porch Piracy Report
Rule out misdelivery first, then document the theft and route the claim to whoever's actually responsible.
Theft and misdelivery need different responses — check which one this is first
A package marked "delivered" that never arrives isn't automatically theft — it could be a neighbor's porch, a misread address, or a driver error, each with a different fix. Filing a theft report or a claim before ruling that out wastes time and can weaken your case. This report walks through verification first, then gives you the police report tracking and the seller-versus-carrier routing you need once theft is actually confirmed.
