This situation often arises due to errors in the shipping process, where packages are misaddressed or sent to the wrong recipient.

Potential Reasons for Receiving the Package:

Brushing Scam: This is a common issue where scammers send products to random addresses to create fake reviews for their items. If you receive a package you did not order, it's advisable to report it to Amazon, but you can keep the item without any obligation. You may as well open the box.

Shipping Error: Sometimes, packages are simply misdirected due to clerical errors during the fulfillment process.

What to Do Next:

Check Your Amazon Account. Ensure that no unauthorized orders were placed under your account.

Report the Package: Use Amazon's reporting tools for unsolicited packages or potential scams.

Keep or Discard: You can choose to keep the item or dispose of it as you see fit, as you are not required to return unsolicited merchandise.

If this continues happening, consider contacting Amazon customer service for further assistance.

First, check my Amazon account and make sure I hadn't been charged for anything that I didn't order.

Second, take the package to Kohl's (which is an Amazon return agent) and tell them the story and let them take care of the problem. Indicate to Kohl's that you can't request a return sticker because you didn't order anything in the first place, "It just showed up on my doorstep".

Third, walk out of the door without the package.

Don't take the package to kohl's. Follow the directions posted above - they are a copy-paste from Amazon.
