   Gun points at him
   "Yo sup"

   Click
   "BRO WHAT THE HE-"

4. I'm not sure how that lock box helps since the delivery person needs to access it.

5. they do for USA like the scum scammers from India and Pakistan do for India and Pakistan. Eradication ?

6. Hey look mark rober is here

7. The person ordering the package gives you the code to the lock (I'm assuming that is what you would use) in the delivery drivers notes.

8. Can yall stop with the fucking "i oRdErEd A lOcK bOx aNd iT gOt StOlEn"

9. A good 12 gauge to the knee will teach them a lesson

10. it should be lawful to shoot someone on site for stealing a package on your property.

11. It only takes an angle grinder or bolt cutter to open that security box. So best is just pick up your packages elsewhere

12. Don't glamorize it with the term "porch pirates" call them "scumbags".

13. This is Mike Tyson and Drakes love child.

14. The way I keep my packages save is a live camera feed and a shotgun right next my door.🇺🇲

15. This is the result of raising children to believe they are the victims of a system that is not fair. We, ALMOST everyone in America today, whether your ancestors were Indigenous, slaves, came as indentured servants, as exploited workers of the rail Barron, Immigrants, are living LONGER, with better access to medical care (whether or not insured), have far better nutrition, than ALMOST any people who are living in the place from where they came from. IMHO, the CHIEF systemic problem WE ALL FACE IS THE OUR FAILURE TO DEMAND TERM LIMITS OF OUR ELECTED LEADERS.

16. Just had my package stolen today as soon as my boyfriend left for work and it was unattended.

17. Once a year I order something from Amazon. After the package arrives I tell Amazon it didn't arrive. They send me another one. I sell the second one on E-Bay. That's how I take advantage of a broken system. And Jeff Bezos is still the richest man in the world. God Bless our Country.

18. Arrest and punish…Should be a felony charge….it's mail!

19. I ordered a box of covid and it got stolen.

20. Leaky pottle that will spill the moment it is tipped over, fill it with cat pee.

21. If you don't already have a system. This offers a free doorbell cam With ADT service to help prevent and catch porch pirates.

22. The pirate lockbox is an amazing idea if someone turned that into an app that only lets UPS,FedEx,USPS etc. Open the box up and you when you get home. That could make billions.

23. Can these scum bags sue you if they get hurt.? I'd just as soon blow them up. or leave a sign one of my packages contains used Kotex pads go ahead take a chance.

24. What i said in the NASA guy video, just make it so the package explode with shrapnel or bullets.. Thief gets injured, their fault ¯_(ツ)_/¯

25. Hope my package is thafe

26. Why do they leave packages at the front door in the USA?
    Here when there is no one home they leave a note. The note says what they have done. Usually they leave it with the neighbors if they are home, retry the next day or they deliver it to the nearest post office. At the office you can collect it. (The note says which one, and you can check the tracking too if it has it)

27. I don't understand. If you lock the box then the mailman can't put your package in.

28. I'm still going to use the opportunity to get rid of garden waste

29. Well the person leaves the lock unlocked and the Mail Carrier Locks it after they put the package in the box how hard is that to understand?

30. When taxes pay for garbage, package theft, etc, it really makes you wonder why they tax us for that. They should tax Walmart for how much it costs to throw away their items, and they should tax Amazon or really anyone who ships things, tax them for how much it costs to protect the item. That way we can all make a proper cost decision before buying something, because we can see how much it actually costs upfront.

31. Frankly. I would love to make a porch box that you can give the number to the delivery company to so they can unlock the box and place your packages inside.

32. i sent a package to my own doorstep with a piece of paper in it that said "you now have a deadly virus" the thief picked it up, saw the note, dropped it, and ran

33. We don't have this problem in my country. Because you have to sign for your packages on delivery. If you aren't there, they just deliver it another day or you fetch it instead.

34. I send my packages to amazon locker or signature needed.

35. What’s the point of the big red box again ? Like how is the delivery person going to put it in ? Are you leaving the key close by ? Or

36. Ok my question is why do people steal packages…. when they have no idea what I’m the box at all… it could literally dog shit for all they know 🤷‍♂️

37. I have a box. There is a simple way to get the package in there and keep it locked.

38. The way to resolve problem like this is to prohibit courier to leave package if no human recipient the moment of delivery.
    Instead leave a note (templated) in their mailbox or door mail hole that they have a package & it Should be claimed to their shop branch within 7 calendar days, otherwise the package would be disposed on the 8th day.
    As well this courier Should also have 7 days office hours from 6am to 10pm so that recipient of the package could go pick up their package either before or after they go to work.

    It's like ShopRite Supermarket, it's Open from 6am till midnight. So that people or customers could buy their groceries before or after they work.
    👍👍

39. How do they get it in the box

40. I had to think about how the red box actually worked..
    so he would leave it unlocked and when they deliver a package that fits in the redbox..
    the delivery guy would lock it.. and the owner to the red box has the key to it..
    we have a community mail box with keys where i live.. it prevents alot of the problem

41. How about when they steal the box and open it, all they will see is a tiny paper clip.

42. Porch pirates are cool but what if it’s big or sum
