Potential nicname's phone situation adjace adventure

[Trim]

Woke up yesterday to a couple emails about having bought something from walmart in the middle of the night, along with a chase fraud alert.  Started with chase and got the card canceled, but it looks like this was purely a walmart hack and they used my chase card that was on file.  I got the walmart account all tightened up but I can still see the info of what went down.

The purchase was for a >$20 set of banker boxes, the carboard boxes you put files in.  They were to be delivered to a PO Box in a shitty city in the greater seattle metro, seems like coincidence.  But I've got a name and PO Box, and that they were delivered today (I won't have time to do a stakeout for the perp picking up this particular item this week).  Looking up the name and city, I can see an address for a shitty house associated with the guy, phone number, linkedin, facebook, etc.  Doesn't seem like the type who'd hack an account for $20 of boxes.

Also in my walmart account now are 2 other names and addresses, one for someone way out in eastern washington, like almost in idaho, and another in maryland.  Not sure what to make of those.

In contrast to nic's deal, as far as I know, I'm not out anything other than the hassle of canceling that credit card and updating the info many places.  But I'm pretty curious wtf.

Thoughts?  Is it a thing where hackers start with innocuous purchases sent to randoms before doing bigger crap?

@nicname, got any vacation time?

this is undoubtedly militia activity, i'd tread lightly

[Tobias]

does walmart sell 'dos?

[Winters]

You need to confront whoever this is while @nicname records on video

I would set up a reality TV type sting situation where you show up when these goods are being delivered then get stabbed by a tweaker when you confront them. No negative repercussions

They were delivered to the P.O. Box earlier today. No way of knowing when he’ll collect.

Trim, do you own a bullet proof vest or maybe can borrow one from a neighbor?

[Pete]

You should put a pig's heart and mail it to that same address with a note that read "YOU."

Is there a weapons guy on the board. Can’t be going into these situations naked.

We NEED Trim to set up a cam and confront these villains (While wearing a bulletproof vest)

If the relatively local guy who got the boxes is the one I’ve found address, facebook, etc. for, there’d be nothing to fear other than having probably a very mind-numbing conversation. I don’t think he had anything to do with whatever this plot was. I can possibly run some errands far out of the way Friday and take an initial look at the post office and house but it’d probably be too late to want to engage with anyone. Probably better to go on the next Saturday I could, especially in the morning when the post office is open.

I’d really like before I do anything to have a few ideas even as to what the goal was here.

In my limited knowledge, I’ve been told that sometimes these guys will purchase several small items over the course of a few weeks to test the waters. So it’s either that or it’s an anti-vax group trying to take you down.

And in that first scenario, is the guy who got some banker boxes just a random irrelevant character chosen by the perps for water-testing?

I watched The Square a couple of weeks ago, and it has a scenario that is similar to this.

I have a Bo staff, but now that Trim getting stabbed is on the table I will withhold my arsenal.

The plot of this on wikipedia is hard to follow, but basically I have to not give my used condom over to the Journalist that’s, for unrelated reasons, interviewing/rough ridin' me in this same time period in which I’m getting to the bottom of the banker box situation?

My guys did not mess around with bankers boxes. Went straight for two $5k AirBNB transactions.

Don't show up to an apartment complex that you know your stolen goods are at and place a letter into every mailbox accusing the residents of stealing from you and demanding your stuff back.

Stolen phone retrieval stories gone wrong.

why didn't he send his army of illegitimate children to retrieve it?
