One of my friends lives in a pretty nice apartment complex and he has a roommate. Whenever he has mail delivered to him, it goes to the front desk at the apartment complex (its almost like a hotel) and he has to show valid ID to pick up any packages....Well, he gave his source his intials as the name to send the package to, but the source said that the post office made him put at least a last name on the package, so the source just made up a name that started with that same letter. Well, since he needs valid ID to pick up his opacks froim the front desk, I told him to call ahead and tell him he was expecting a package from his uncle from out of town, but that his uncle accidentally put the wrong name. When he called the front desk he said they were being really sketchy. He said that when he caled they immediately were like "uh huh, yea, we got your package alright" then he said it was under the wrong name and they imeediately said, "yes we have your package alrigth" almost like he will be introubel or something. Should he be worried, or should he pick it up? Do you think he will be safe as long as he doesn't open it for a while and makes sure his apartment is clean of anything illegal?

hmmmmm...ITs just mail from the APT office right?? I dont see why he needs ID if he lives there and they know him. I dont know about this one. Its not like the manager or whomever is gonna have the Cops on line 2 on hold or something. Maybe he can make "frineds" with one of the workers there..theres got to be some hot chick or not so hot chick that works there

Yea he always has to show I.D. b/c it is a big complex, and also he has 2 roommates so even if it is sent to his address, he has to show that the mail actually belongs to him.

since its at his apt office, he should just go in the office. if it's the same person working there as usual, he should pick it up. if it's an unfamiliar face, leave then come back the next day. trust me - LE has better things to do than do a multiple day stake-out for a small amount of juice.
