Does everyone now get these texts minutes before an Amazon delivery or am I on a shit list?

So about a month ago it started and I get a twxt 5 mins before the Amazon guy comes saying he’ll be with me shortly and he needs my help to make the delivery. That they’re just letting me know they’re nearly here and could I secure any pets.

I’d assumed it was just a new “heads up” service.

dd has pointed out she thinks it’s targeted because our soppy bichon frise sounds like a hell hound at any delivery. She’d never do anything at all. But we have a new driver and the first time he came (just before the texts started) he nearly shit himself when I opened the door. Dog stays behind me giving it full beans from the safety of halfway down the hall. She would leg it into the kitchen if he said anything 😁

I feel bad as I haven’t been “putting her away”. 🙈

It must depend on the driver. I sometimes get them, sometimes don't. I dont have any pets & I get them for deliveries in daylight

We get these texts. Started about two weeks ago.

We typically have 3/4 Amazon deliveries a week.

We don’t have pets

Some drivers that deliver to us send them and some don't. We don't have any pets.

I have a lot of Amazon deliveries and I've had three or four of those messages in the last couple of months. I don't have any dogs and it's always been daylight! I assume they happen if it's a new driver, no idea.

I’ve had a couple of these texts but I do have a golden retriever who adores Amazon delivery drivers and everyone else in the entire world. I did wonder if it was just my dog, this is reassuring.
