A few years ago someone fraudulently changed my address without my permission. It took me three days to wonder why I wasn't getting a couple small packages I was expecting. When I went to the PO, the supervisor pulled up my address and showed me the form, with my "signature," sending all my mail to Brooklyn to an address I was completely unfamiliar with. I don't even know anyone who lives in NYC. It was around Christmas, and he said this happens a lot around the holidays as people are wanting to steal cards with cash/gift cards. You'd think they stop letting people just fill out those cards and dropping them in the mail, and require some ID.

Anyway, I called Amazon because one of the packages was sent by USPS and they actually credited my account for it, no questions asked. I offered to give them the post office's case number, and they didn't even ask for that.

(I'm sure the thieves weren't happy that all they netted was some fish oil capsules and a Netflix DVD about an African girl chess champion. ;-) I don't get any financial documents through the mail, thankfully.)
