In brief
An Oak Cliff woman recognized her own address in a viral clip of mail piled up inside someone's house. If your mail goes missing, the USPS Office of Inspector General hotline is the place to report it, not local police. Originally reported by FOX 4 News Dallas-Fort Worth.
A video full of mail
An Instagram clip showed boxes and boxes of undelivered mail stacked inside someone's home. The person filming was angry and posted it to out whoever had it.
That's my address
The clip got reshared over and over until Jessica Amador watched it and spotted her own Oak Cliff address on some of the envelopes.
Nobody had an answer
Dallas police told her to call the Postal Service. Her postal station gave her nothing clear, so she emailed FOX 4's Shaun Rabb for help.
What was in there
Most of the mail belongs to her dad, and neither of them knows what is sitting in those boxes. Checks and W2s are the worry.
“Do we have checks in there? Do we have W2s in there? Like, we want to know what's in there.”
Feds open a case
The USPS Office of Inspector General confirmed it is investigating her claims, saying this kind of alleged behavior inside the postal service is not tolerated.
“USPS OIG special agents conduct thorough and diligent investigations to address those claims.”
Still no returned mail
It is unknown who took the mail, how it got into that home, or when any of it reaches the people it was addressed to. Anyone with information can contact the OIG hotline.
The headline
If your mail goes missing, the USPS Office of Inspector General hotline is the place to report it, not local police.
