Mandy Moore criticizes Amazon for delivering package to LA fire-damaged home of her father-in-law’s
Moore shared a photo on Instagram of an Amazon package left at her in-laws’ home, which was completely burned in the fires.
In her post, she expressed her disbelief at the lack of discretion shown by the delivery service.
She wrote, “Do better Amazon. Can we not have better discretion than to leave a package at a residence that no longer exists?”
“This is my mother and father-in-law’s home, smh.”
This comment reflects her disappointment not only with Amazon but also with the situation overall.
Her family home in Altadena also suffered damage from the fires.
Social media reactions
One user said: They deliver to the address on record on the account.
If address has changed, be responsible enough and change it on the order instead of throwing blame at the company.
The second user wrote: We live very rural. Our Amazon packages are delivered down our 1/2 mile driveway and put on our porch.
I agree, they should have contacted Amazon. It’s easy to do.
The third user commented: When I lost my home to a fire, the first thing I did was contact Amazon about a package due to be delivered and changed the address.
People don’t want to take responsibility and are quite ready to blame someone else.
Another user said: Amazon did what it was instructed to do on the customer’s account. It’s up to the customer to provide alternate delivery instructions.
Someone added: Yeah blame an underpaid Amazon worker who is already overworked and stressing to get their job done.
