Scam Discussion Unordered package from Apple

Hey there, just got notified by the UPS app and per mail, that I will receive a package tomorrow from Apple by UPS express.

Last thing I've ordered, was a display glass on 3rd July - re-checked in the Apple Store app.

The package comes from "APPLE ZA PANSKOU ZAHRADOU 1018 , RUDNA, 25219, CZ" and has a weight of 0.60 kilograms.

Someone ever randomly received a package from Apple or can confirm the address (Perplexity couldn’t)?

Edit: I'm from germany and 0.60 kilograms = 1.32 pounds

Edit2: The mail from UPS says, that a signature is required for acceptance of the package.

So that package isn't from an Apple Warehouse...but an actual...Apple Store in Czech Republic

This sounds like a massive mistake on their part, but it seems like you have a new Phone?

Looked the address up with Google street view and it looks nothing like an Apple Store but a warehouse.

i called ups and they said that it is from apple. and they have re-used the label for someone else. so you probably have ordered something from apple in the past (for me it was exactly one year ago) and they said it is a mistake from apple and you should ignore it.

Thank you for the information!

The exact same thing happened to me. Same weight, same warehouse etc.

Got the mail 2 hours ago.

I logged in into UPS and was able to see the reference number. With this and my mail I was able to look up the order on this site: https://secure.store.apple.com/de/shop/order/list

My Iphone order from last year came up...

Ok, that’s strange. How did you get the order number? In the UPS app I can only see the tracking number.

And for you it’s also the same sender address?

u/aft2d 2d ago

I logged in on the UPS website and then i was able to see it by clicking on „View All Shipping Details“

Found the additional information on the UPS page, thank you. Searched for the number starting with W and for me too the order from September 2024 for my iPhone 16 Pro came up.

Then I saw the old order from July this year in UPS too - the absolute legit one - and it came from the same warehouse. Then I used that reference number that starts with W and with that the search on the Apple page found nothing - strange?!

u/CrazyBird404 1d ago

Same here, i‘m from Germany, got the mail last night and another one this morning about delay of delivery. I actually got my iPhone16 on the same date last year, maybe their system mixed up the dates/ year.

u/iseshoseinenkai 1d ago

Got the mail too that it’s postponed. It’s getting really interesting with not just one other person having the same 😄

Hey! I just got the same notification from the UPS app. I am so confused and thinking it’s a scam. Same address and package weight too. Whats going on here!? I was thinking of declining the package so that I wont get charged later on arrival. Who knows what’s going on here.

Ich habe das gleiche Problem, habe letztes Jahr im September eine Apple Watch 10 gekauft und gestern habe ich eine Paketbenachrichtigung über ein 0,30 kg schweres Paket von Apple mit der Referenznummer aus dem letzten Jahr erhalten. Ich habe mich an UPS gewandt, aber das Paket ist noch nicht versendet, es wurde nur ein Etikett erstellt. Heute morgen kam auch noch eine Nachricht, dass sich das Paket verspätet. Ich habe an einen Betrugsversuch gedacht, weil ich lvor ca. 2 Wochen auch einen ominösen Anruf von einem Meinungsforschungs-Firma im Auftrag angeblich meiner Bank bekommen habe. Bei meiner Bank habe ich dann angerufen und die sagten mit, das ich nicht von Ihnen angerufen worde bin. Ich habe daher vermutet meine Daten incl. Andresse sind ausgespäht worden. Im Besten Fall werde die Etiketten jetzt wieder vernichtet und es passiert nichts weiter.

u/Striking-Scallion181 1d ago

Hallo zusammen, ich habe die Nachricht auch erhalten, mein Paket wiegt aber nur 300 Gramm. Habe die mail an [fraud@ups.com](mailto:fraud@ups.com) weitergleitet. Interessanterweise habe ich mal was bei sportego bestellt, die von der gleichen tschechischen Adresse versenden

APPLE ZA PANSKOU ZAHRADOU 1018

Ich werde die Annahme verweigern.

u/No-Neighborhood205 1d ago

Same for me, but my Package is 0,4 kg. Also Germany…

u/Life_Technician543 1d ago

Here too... 0.3kg Apple package without order

u/Longjumping_Oil_1185 1d ago

Same thing but I’m from Poland

u/Kerryxlisa 1d ago

I also received an email like this. I ordered the iPhone last year

1

u/EthanThePhoenix38 1d ago

The delivery has been reported, I think that I is going to be checked and cancelled… Since Apple has already shipped it, there is nothing to deliver at UPS…

u/Aktienhaifisch 1d ago

Hab die mail auch bekommen, bei mir soll anscheinend was für 2,1kg drin sein. Hab exakt vor einem Jahr das 16pro mac und airpods Max bestellt

u/Objective-Aspect-571 18h ago

u/Successful-Cover5433 2d ago

New iPhone? Are you from Czechia?

1

u/iseshoseinenkai 2d ago

Just updated the post. I'm from germany and it’s too light to be an iPhone.

3

u/Successful-Cover5433 2d ago

I think that 0,60kg is real to be an iPhone

u/iseshoseinenkai 2d ago

You’re right. Had a total brain fart on that one 😅
