I didn’t order them, they’re not on my recent purchases either.

They want you to draw them some pictures.

LittleSnakes · 02/02/2022 19:46

Haha, yes, maybe that’s it. Shame my drawing is a bit shit.

Is this where someone sends you a product and asks you to review it?

They once sent me a tent. It was a real hassle to return it because I hadn't ordered it and so couldn't get a returns slip.

It's calling brushing, it happened to me a couple of years ago, & lasted a few months. No money was ever taken from my account.

I contacted Amazon, they said to keep whatever was sent to me, my niece loved the child's snorkel, I gave a breast pump to my neighbours...

Are you expecting delivery of an expensive item? I had heard of someone receiving a pack of paper instead of a laptop which had been pinched.

Coincidentally, I received something yesterday that I hadn't ordered. Weird.

Okay, I should be receiving my own freebie any day now.

Hopeful!

No, I haven’t ordered anything recently. It’s two packs of A4 paper. So nothing very exciting. I’ll change my passwords in case it’s that ‘brushing’ thing. Also, they have used my shortened name instead of my full name which is strange.

Is if definitely from Amazon, not just someone re-using Amazon packaging?

LittleSnakes · 03/02/2022 07:29

Yeah it was because it hadn’t been opened before and has the printed label like you get.
