UPS believed me.
so.... should i be fine to continue redirecting and putting a fake address only this time?

i guess it has, because they just called me again (the depot) saying if i do it one more time, they will completely stop delivering to my address.
But i have like 5 redirects waiting,
Is she allowed to do this? i mean she seemed so suspicious of me.
(she will tell the driver to stop delivering) i had to talk to the local depot.

The reason why they've decided to take action with future redirects, Is due to the following event- namely the Inconsistency with the fake name.

If you leave the name as Is and only alter the shipping address, there's no cause for concern. For legit reasons (and SEing of course), I always change the delivery address due to not being available at home to accept the package. For this very reason, the carrier cannot deem an alternative delivery point as suspicious. You have every right to change and specify precisely where you'd prefer your packages delivered.

okay and is it likely they will take any major action? i mean all it is to them is just delivering a parcel.
