USPS Tracking says “seized by law enforcement.”
If a postal inspector finds any mail that they believe may be linked to illegal activity, they will attempt to contact the sender or recipient. If no response is received, the package is scanned as “seized by law enforcement” and the postal inspector will receive and track the package. If it is determined that the package should be disposed of, a solid reason must be provided in order for it to be destroyed. ..
Tracking the package
To track your package, you should be ready with your tracking number and the shipping confirmation email received. You can find the tracking number on the post office shipping receipt, email confirmation, shipping confirmation email, and the bottom portion of the USPS tracking label.
If you have the tracking number, you can go to the USPS website and enter it in the search bar to see the package’s status. The tracking number for this package is ‘9400 1000 0000 0000 0000 00’. ..
Suspicion on the package
If the postal employee finds suspicious mail, they will keep the package aside and secure it. They will also contact the postal inspection service to gain more information. The postal inspector should enter the details of the post into a tracking system’s database.
Mail that is suspected of containing drugs will be scanned and inspected by a drug dog. If the dog alerts for the presence of drugs, a warrant will be issued. The mail will be considered suspicious if any of the following conditions are met: the return address doesn’t match an item containing the postmark, there is an enormous amount of postage, the package is leaking a powdery substance, it is unusually heavy, it is marked as confidential/personal to maintain privacy, or it has any other unusual characteristics. However, first-class packages have protection under search and seizure and cannot be opened without a search warrant. ..
If the package is seized by customs, the officer will forward the file to the Fines, Penalties, and Forfeitures Office for a decision on whether or not to release it. ..
If the package is lost, you can try to find it by using a tracking service or by contacting the sender.
If you have an option to track your package’s status, please track it using the tracking number. If you need help with a missing mail search request, please fill out the Help request form and submit it to our customer service team.
Are all the packages X-rayed?
A package is usually X-rayed when it is larger than a few millimeters and when it has something that needs to be examined closely. There are no specific guidelines, so it really depends on the package and what the inspector is looking for.
The USPS delivery service can be sped up by using a more efficient delivery method, such as an air cargo service.
The first class mail, Priority mail, and ground parcels will all be shipped in different transportation systems, which may differ in the mode of transportation as well. There will be sorting done in different places, at the main source of post office different classes of packages go in different containers. Therefore the delivery cannot be speeded up if the package is already categorized into different classes.
In the United States, the Postal Service provides a service known as “ups.” This service allows packages to be delivered to your home or office much faster than if they were sent through the mail. Ups can be used to stop packages from being delivered to your house or office, or to get them delivered to a more distant location.
UPS delivery intercept gives us a chance to intercept our package before it is delivered to the customer. This helps us to either return, redirect, or to hold the package. It is very convenient to use. ..
