Blank envelope recieved

Hi,

I have just received an envelope purporting to be from e bay and addressed to 'THE OCCUPANT' rather than my name. There was nothing inside the envelope, but had been sent 24h tracked with Royal Mail - see attached.

I have not ordered anything recently, so wondering if this is some sort of scam.

Anyone else had this?

Are you sure this is from an eBay seller?  A seller would always address you by your name, not to ' The Occupant'.

 

If you have purchased some recent items from eBay,  checkout those sellers,  they may just have posted to the wrong buyer.  Was the envelope damaged?  The item may have fallen out ?

 

Click on the seller's listings,  then down the left sidebar click on Sold.  If you find the item there, send that seller a message  that you have received their item in error,  for them to send you enough money to cover a fully tracked return postage to return the item back to them.

 

Do not be fobbed off with sending to the correct buyer, it goes back to the seller.

 

If this is not the case, and no one else in your household purchased anything from your account,  google Brushing Scam see if that applies here.
