My box was opened?

I recieved a package a few days and i noticed it had been opened through the side and closed back. Could the post office or someone looked in there? Im just kind of worried about this. Maybe they are watching me? I'm not sure which forum to post this in but im posting here because maybe the vendors who have expeirance mailing things have ever seen this happened. I just want to study spores under a microscope without being harassed.

In my experience I have learned not to do any business with the US mail. They have damaged, lost, and opened countless packages for me and my customers. I stopped using them and now go UPS for everything. It seems that the people working at the post office really do hate the world and are out to get everyone. Although it could have been your vendor who just forgot to put your receipt in your package. Check with them...maybe they will remember. Good luck.

I used to work for FedEx, as long as you aren't getting your spores via US mail, you're fine. No company is going to voluntarily drag in gov interference. When I worked for FedEx, a box full of pot fell off the conveyour belt and busted open...all my supervisor did was re-tape it and send it back to the sender, lol

it might have been you family, i onw i have seen that happen alot. tampering with us mail is a federal crime, so i dont really see the post office doing it, unless they had a warrant...
personally i would not use those, and clean everything out of my house immediately. i would also take out what was in the envelope, fill it with somthing else, tape it up and write return to sender on it. so whoever opened it will think that whatever it was you didnt order/want it.
but then again im a deeply paranoid person

just remember that _only_ mail sent via the USPS is protected by your 4th Amendment rights. Private carriers can legal open up your packages and rifle through them at will. My experiences with USPS have been outstanding. Just another opinion.

Indeed...they busted some Postal worker here about a year ago for opening mail illegally. He admitted he was looking for anything he could get his hands on, mostly stuff shipped from stores and such.

Why would they target your packages, do you think? They really don't have the time to just start opening packages left and right. With the massive volume involved in all of them, USPS, UPS, Fed Ex, I'm surprised that anything ever gets opened. How would they even know what to open in the first place?

Regardless of whether or not the post office opens your packages or not they can't do anything to you as spore syringes are not illegal unless you live in Georgia or California...
