Mystery books received in post

[Jessicat1986]

Hi all,

Yesterday a parcel was delivered to me with three books but without a note or invoice. I haven’t ordered these books. So I googled the return address and called the company (Myles Robinson, Unicol Engeneering, Oxford, OX3 8EU). They said they’d received about 30 other calls over the past couple of days with the same story. They don’t know the sender, Myles Robinson and they haven’t sent anything so they’re looking into it with the Post Office. Apparently all the other people that called are all over the country and have recently had a baby or have got a young child.

Has anyone else received these books? If so, so you know who or where they’re from?

The books received were BABY’S VERY FIRST TOUCHY-FEELY ANIMALS PLAYBOOK, THE TRAIN TO IMPOSSIBLE PLACES and POPPY AND SAM’S RUBBER STAMP ACTIVITIES

I haven’t called them. I also haven’t signed up for anything other than ellas kitchen. I’m pretty strict about sharing details so I’m struggling to think where or how these have arrived with us. Like you they aren’t age appropriate and as they don’t come with any sort of note and the return address doesn’t make sense I’ve binned them! Just feel uneasy about them. I also feel guilty for binning them but it’s more for a just in case. Very very odd 🧐 Let me know if you solve the mystery!!

Have you seen that scene in The Croods where they panic and smash the shell?

I have just had the exact same books arrive today!! With no note or anything I’m still soo confused? Xx

There was a promotion somewhere that was giving away those books, but I can't quite remember who was running it. I'll have a think, but you definitely either signed up for it or someone you know did on your behalf.

They're from H&M. I've been wondering all morning where they came from but H&M ran a competition for its members a while back. It did state they'd be sent straight to your address but a note would have been nice. Lol social.hm.com/en_GB/member-competition

Yes! That was it, knew I'd seen those titles somewhere.

Yes!!!!!! Thank you!!!! My poor baby brain trying to figure out where they were from! It can have a rest now 🤣 H&M could have put a note in there, as you said. Thanks again!

You can retrieve them from the bin now, PP

OMG! I remember now I did enter that competition with h and m it makes sense now xx

H&M comp! Quick, fish them out of your bin if they haven’t already been collected by the lorry!

@NMC20
I’ve binned them!

What a waste of books. If you didn't want them you could have put them outside with a note saying ”free” and someone who would have appreciated them could have used them.

I pity your children.

I’ve just recieved the same books, no note or invoice and no baby in the house either!! my daughter is 10!

Hey,

They’re from an H&M competition. Perhaps your daughter entered it?

Hello xxx I’m just googling this myself and yes I have received these books too exactly the same three! I buy a lot online but haven’t ordered these so not sure where they’ve come from?!
