Awesome! My mom works for Fedex as a courier and she came home with this package and was like "you should open it" and it's a frickin iPhone!! Said she was given it by her boss as a gift for working iPhone delivery day. Didn't come in a cardboard shipping box though..was just the iPhone...awesome :D
 
Picture

Here it is--- the sides are ripped off as you can see on the top.

I asked the Fedex lady to take a pic with it.

Sorry had to block out my info

Sucks big time, this is one of those "fell out of a truck" stories. I hope they sort it out. I hate the way insurance works with shipping companies.
 
Yes, this. Definitely sounds fishy . . . unless she just delivered so many today she could tell the box felt lighter.

Actually she shook it too... she said.. hmm I have been delivering these all day and it feels weird too.

She did it as soon as I did it.

I am on hold with Apple-

So far FedEx from my local station has called and asked me to call both Apple and the Police-- they are contacting internal FedEx security.
 
That must really suck! The days go so slow when you wait for the new iphone to turn up at your door, only to find out its not in the box. I feel for you man. Hope there is no more cases like this for other people.
 
OP, sorry to hear it man. Hope it gets worked out quick.

Wow, I feel sorry for you, but i'm pissed as well.

I left a pre-sign sheet taped to my front door, only to just find out FedEx left a sorry we missed you notice, WTF!!! LOL. I mean the sheet even says FedEx, just plain laziness on their part. I'm about to call and let them have it.

I used the pre-sign form as well and FedEx left it as they should. Perhaps your driver missed it?
 
Did you sign for the package, or did the FedEx lady take it back with her?

It's pretty hard to miss the front door where I taped it in plain view. Here's the kicker though, the driver put the notice right over top of the signature sheet.

Unfortunately, I had signed for it.

She immediately called her supervisor as soon as we opened it because now it needs to be removed from showing as delivered.

Finally, Apple picked up. I explained it and the guy (very young sounding) has put me on hold. It has been so long, I have to assume he is talking to his supervisor or something.

At this point, FedEx and Apple should work it amongst themselves. Call up my local Apple Store and have one held for me to go pick up tonight.

I have work I need to be doing not sitting on the phone with FedEx and APple and now my police department (FedEx asked me to call them).
 
I just got 2 Iphones delivered to my office. One of them had the main cardboard box open, but not anything in it was missing or tampered with. Almost as if someone thought about swiping it, but didn't :) It could have been my mailroom from work or Fed Ex...
 
This was an excellent idea. Shows who she is (can be a witness) and proves it was empty before it left her hands.

Oh yeah when she was just going to take a tracking number per her supervisor, I was like..hmm, no I dont feel comfortable about this. She also let me take a close up pic of her badge. She had nothing to hide and knew it was empty too.
 
I have your iphone, and will give it back for $1million dollars...

just kidding man, hope everything works its self out..
 
Well, I just had a ghost delivery.

Package was delivered and "signed for"..


Nobody has come to my house today.
 
This exactly why I reserved one for pick up. That's the kind of luck I have. Hope it all works out bud!
 
jesh this is all to crazy.. well mine is going to my post office they sign for it from fed-ex but i still have to sign for it that i received it from the post office. I will definitely inspect it before i sign.. maybe even open it
