And that's supposing the American Postal System can figure out what the heck is going on. I've already not received a certain amount of bills that should come through the mail. If there was one thing you could rely on it was the Mail Service, but like everything else it's up the spout.

If they don't leave a message, they don't get a call back. (Which irritates some). But it is clearly stated in the outgoing message.Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-4585938142355295442020-11-01T23:08:55.442+00:002020-11-01T23:08:55.442+00:00Have never used Amazon and don't intend to.

Think it was the old “your computer is sending out error messages”. After playing the naive dumb techno idiot I asked the guy how often this worked. I was genuinely interested. He laughed and said it worked about one in five times if he could engage the caller.

There are such large numbers of them now that it's hard not to be aware of them and delete. Any real delivery email would have all the details on if it's from Amazon anyway.
