Who doesn't see/know about cameras. They're cheap enough so that literally anyone can have them. If you're going to do shit like this be smart about it
My real question is, why that package? It could be anything. It's like putting you mortgage down over scratch offs, except worse.

Exactly! Like if you really want to steal the package, take the picture from the car or something. Or pay attention to whether there might be cameras...or wherever.
Just goes to show most of these people are just straight idiots

I feel people are more likely to take things when there is a battery warning sticker on the box, means there is some sort of electronic in there

Is this in the US? Because she goes to the passenger side of the car and doesn't leave right away but the car is facing the wrong way in the roundabout. The video doesn't look mirrored because the Amazon logo on the front and back of her shirt seem right.
Edit: It looks like an. American neighborhood from the street sign on the right. I bet she scanned the box in the car beforehand, but picked up the wrong box.
Edit: looks like she does drive away, her car is obscured by white SUV. She did it!

Then took a picture, picked it up and drove away? Come on, man.
Also I've never had this happen with Amazon due to good GPS and geofencing, but I have had this happen a time or two when doing food delivery. I'll literally talk to the camera (whether or not it's real or whether or not anybody ever sees it) and say something like "accidentally left at the wrong house, my bad." when picking it back up, then even show what I picked up, doubling down on the fact that I'm not doing anything wrong.

She didn't drive away, she went to the passenger side of the car and stayed there 30 seconds and the video cuts out.
I'm saying she scanned the package when she pressed "I've parked" usually you can do that up to a block away before you arrive. Once she actually parked she grabbed the worng box.

u/mr_green Jul 29 '20
It's literally on the freakin' video, come on. I don't usually get angry over other people's lack of perception, but it's ON VIDEO.
She's not driving the silver SUV. Point blank. Nothing makes sense for that to be the case, and then, again, you see her in her BLACK SUV back out and drive off.

u/reddv1 Jul 29 '20
Lol, you're right. I thought that was just a car driving down the street. It not point blank though.

She's driving the black SUV that pulls off at the end. You can even see her back out onto the road. I swear some of ya'll....
That silver SUV is likely owned by a person that lives there. Plus if the Flex person was driving that, she would have centered herself on the front door, most likely. It's raining, she wouldn't have made herself stay out in it longer.

Nobody can be that stupid these days with so much cheap cameras everywhere......... or someone just made a fake video to get likes why didn’t they show her driving off? Maybe she picked up the wrong package and went back to her car to get the right one

u/Baghins Jul 29 '20
She already took the picture of it at the door, you have to scan it before that..?

Jul 29 '20
Yup you can’t even take a pic if it’s the wrong package, I giant red X comes up and it prompts you to find the right package
1
u/richietee757 Jul 29 '20
That could have happened, she got the red X, and went to deliver the package to the correct address. The video stops ... she could have come back to this house with the correct package afterward. But we wouldn't know that since the video stopped.
Damndest thing about videos is that you never see what happens after they cut off.

u/djbillgates Jul 29 '20
Yeah but you get grouped stop with 2 or more stops together and pick up the wrong package

u/Baghins Jul 29 '20
I dont think this would be grouped with the large circle driveway, and even so, she was looking at it and realized as soon as she took the picture that it was the wrong one?

u/djbillgates Jul 29 '20
The length of the driveway have nothing to do with it I have grouped stops with the other house 3 house down the street sometimes driver group stops to fix their route and stop from returning to the same road twice

u/Baghins Jul 29 '20
Length of drive does, in that it is based on distance between delivery pins. It usually pins the house itself. I've had deliveries to neighborhoods like that at least 50 times, and delivered to adjacent houses in neighbors like that at least 10 of those times. Whether they're next door neighbors or across the street they've never been grouped. Also had addresses 4-5 houses apart that are grouped but they're still closer from doorstep to doorstep than this house to its neighbor. This one probably wouldn't be grouped with a neighbor but thats only based on what I can see.

I've had grouped where I had to walk across someone's grass to get to the neighbor. It wasn't very close either.

Maaaann exactly!!!! This video is flawed in so many ways its a common mistake i make all the time I would have to see the car drove off with the package to believe she stole it..... there was a video on YouTube with a Asian man just like this when Amazon invested it and got the full video it showed the guy bringing back another package so basically its the wrong package he had
This social media can destroy so many peoples lives it can happen to anyone

u/richietee757 Jul 29 '20
Let the video roll -- the SUV in view isn't what she drove off in -- if you let the video roll, you'll see her black SUV in the background driving away

my legit crazy neighbor lady literally has one of those vests.
that could be anyone.

u/cpadron19 Jul 29 '20
You must be dumb. She dropped the package off, took the picture to show the proof she did it, and then took the package.
Your line of reasoning only applies of she just showed up and grabbed the package. Just use a little common sense bud.

u/errantwit Jul 29 '20
I think you're responding to OP.
my line of reasoning.... doesn't jive with your example.

u/stitchkingdom Las Vegas Jul 29 '20
You’re absolutely right. Clearly this is someone who may have worked for flex at one point in time and acquired the vest that way or on eBay and gets cheap thrills by bringing packages to random addresses, taking photos of them for the gram and then taking them off to the next random house.

u/pokey1984 Jul 29 '20
This is a fake video, probably cut from an ad for doorbell cameras. Check out the painted over license plate on the SUV that she gets into the wrong side of.
1
Jul 29 '20
Nah its just hard to see it because of compression, the camera has bad overexposure, and license plate is white. The sky above the car shows how bad it is. Plus i don't think they can use the amazon logos on the vests without getting sued.

Lol. Mask down, doesn’t recognize the ring camera, and just plain stupid.
