Listen child, even if spidey is in loss prevention, do not send him anything. The post he made goes against everything that a normal loss prevention would do or say.

IF you are for real, call 1800-pick ups. Keep hitting 0 until you get to a live person. IF that fails, call 911. LEt the real police take care of the problem.

IF indeed you are a troll, give your imagination a rest. Get a life.

My gut feeling is you are full of BS. As Spidey posted, I dont know of a single child that is computer savy such as yourself that would be a victim unless you wanted to be.

This is just a young child looking for some attention. I'm just glad I dont have him/her on my route because comments that this child is making could get a driver fired. If it's true that a driver is approaching this 17 yr old then I say god help him and I have trouble believing that nobody else has seen this driver act the way she is talking about.

Stop running out to the UPS truck when he shows up. This driver will leave the pkg outside if you dont answer the door. If your 17 as you say then start using your head for thinking.

Dannyboy,

I am in LP, but I understand why that read badly. Internet trolls have been around for so long I'm shocked that everyone doesn't see through this stuff. I suggested she give me her information rather than call the 1-800# because that won't work. CSC will send the center a message, the OMS will ODS the driver that there was a complaint, and maybe mention it to his supervisor if he or she thinks about it. If this accusation were true, which it isn't, that could make things much worse. Any investigation needs to start with HR and LP. I wasn't about to send a troll contact #s for those departments in her district.

She stated she was 16, not 17.

I had my doubts from the first, but counseled it as real to play safe including starting with letting the driver know that she wasn't interested as this could easily have been a fantasising kid and she could get the driver into real trouble with bs accusations.

The additional information that another driver has warned her of this guy as an anger management case really starts to make it smell false as does the hiring questions and general chat style on several other threads.

Also, there has never been any mention of adult supervision or intervention which makes the likeliness that this scenario and posting is real far more dubious as the homeschooled are usually far more protected by their parents from others than the average teen.

I have been reading this for a while, and I dont think I believe it. Children dont usually make up things but 16, 17 yr old girls, ya they do. He could be a smuck, but coming here, wanting a job, etc, all sounds weird to me. I sure hope she comes to her senses, and since I doubt he is threatening, she should use her head and tell him to flat out leave her alone. And if it escalates, then where is Mom and DAd????? The world is a rough place and if you cant scare away a UPS man, you are in trouble out in the real world. If she has truly been/being home schooled, maybe she is not well versed in how 17 yr old boys may be. (sheltered) I hate to see anyone lose their livelihood as maybe he is responding to her with affection that he would display with a daughter of the same age. And she dont know the difference. Not all she says has been believable. If/when I was afraid of someone, I would go to great lengths to avoid them. She greets him at the door. Im not saying to give a perv the way out, but , be sure of what you accuse someone, as in todays world, your misinterpretation, could be a huge loss for the guy. And something you would have to live with. Maybe she is pretty and reads too much cosmo, or watches too much TV. All I can say is be sure you really feel threatened, not just bringing attention to yourself before you ruin some guys life.

Spidey, no she stated she was 16.

At one point she asked if you could work at UPS at age 17 which I believe is where others started quoting 17.

couple of things from other posts. She didnt see a post from another poster because she was running out to meet the UPS man? When does someone that gets creeped out by the UPS man go running outside to meet and greet the UPS man? Just BS

And the hurt show she put on is crap. Been a foster father too many years to swallow that one.

Spidey, IT is what you posted that I found interesting. You above all others should know that a minor should never ever send any personal information to someone over the net. NEver EVER. That is why I wrote what I did.

My gut tells me this is one of the BS specialists that roam the internet looking to stir the pot or play the victim. In this case both.

And then claim she wants to work for UPS? Give me a break.

Also having a hard copy of these posts should someone need them to defend their job against the bogus claims. I guess the years as a steward are paying off.

Danny, I absoultely agree. However, on the off chance that she was for real, her lack of any real action to stop the problem was limiting her options. She doesn't want to tell her parents or call the police. She is "gonna call UPS real soon" or some such garbage... I was calling her bluff. If she wanted something done, I gave her an easy way to take a step forward, knowing full well that there would be no info forwarded BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T EXIST. I have teenage daughters; hell, I WAS a teenage girl a thousand years ago, so I know a little about them. Enough to know she isn't one. I'm done with the thread as anything we post now is troll food, but I did appreciate your remarks, Danny.
