My 7YO keeps getting panty liners in the mail.

| Can you see/recall who has sent your son (normal) Amazon packages in the past? Grandparents, friends, etc? My guess is that someone accidentally selected your son as the recipient for an auto delivery when they set it up. It’s easy to do; I’ve had Amazon default to the last recipient on deliveries before. |

Oops could certainly be one of your sisters or someone accidentally sent to same address as last time. This is embarrassing |

When I was a tween I had a falling out with a mean girl friend. She called one of those drug hotlines claiming I (at like 15 y/o) was a coke addict and gave them my parent’s names and phone number.
I remember being out at a water park with friends and when I got home my parents asked me about it. I was so confused and thankfully they believed me and knew I wasn’t doing lines of coke in 10th grade. Ended up finding out it was my former friend because she went around laughing to others who told me. My parents called the hotline back to explain what happened so they wouldn’t keep calling or alert CPS. It really could have been a nightmare for my family had they not believed us. I truly believe that girl is a sociopath. She ended up losing a lot of friends and no one knows what happened to her after HS. |

This does seem the most likely. My phone app once jumped to my cousin's address and I almost mailed her. If a person does a lot of auto-delivery they may not ever notice. |

The initials that Amazon CS gave me do not match any of our relatives. We have an acquaintance or two whose initials match so I gave those names to the CS rep, who said neither was the person who sent the package. An accidental subscribe & save (but who?!!) seems likely, or a brushing scam -- but why would we get the same product twice, and are retailers really that desperate for reviews for a common, national brand of panty liners? --OP |

ohhh that seems likely! panty liners are the type of thing someone might put on auto delivery. I think I would die of embarrassment! |

| Sounds like you have a subscription. |

How would they get the kid's name though. They usually get the property owner's name from property records. Kids aren't on property records. |

I don't find it funny at all, and I'm not Op. This is extremely alarming, particularly if it's coming from an adult to a little boy. |

This. Bullshit that they are pulling the "Omg, we can't do anything about this. Oopsie!" |

It sounds like the kind of ridiculous thing kids would do to each other, especially if they are bullying someone a bit. But 7 seems young for that sophisticated of a thing; ordering panty liners through the mail. I would expect it from older kids, but not 7. We used to send pizzas to people we didn't like back in the day when you didn't have to pay up front, but that was 6th grade.
It's weird. |

Brushing scams send tiny envelopes with trash in them. Not actual boxes of something real. |

But she said March and June. Who is going through that many pantyliners in a couple of months? |
