Do you think there is someone in your building/complex who signed for you, or do you think the driver forged the signature?

I can't imagine that FedEx was your choice...for items of that value (and really even far below it), every single AH should allow winners to choose the shipping method. FedEx can be such a nightmare. For all the complaints about USPS, USPS Registered would not have led to this outcome IMO

I would guess the driver. My first area of discovery will be to review all of the driver’s signature deliveries. I would bet that “forged signature “ is not a first.

page of cards was stolen including an autographed 1961 Clemente and 1961 Hornsby from a package whine in Fedex's possession for less than 14 hours. They "investigated" Conclusded nothing - whole process is laughable, but not in the least bit funny!

Wonder if there are enough of these type situations for a class action lawsuit. As previously mentioned until this atrocious accountability costs Fedex real money (ie. Expensive lawsuit settlement), I suspect the lack of process follow through and accountability will continue.

It is situationally great to be covered by insurance in these cases, but more globally 1) It lets Fed Ex (or other shippers) off the hook regaridng true accountability and ends up costing us all more for insurance as a result of FedEx emloyees negligent behabvior!

Wonder if filing a police report would get anywhere…40k is no joke.

I had a consignor/board member send a package Fed EX to my residence last week, signature required, I was home all day and about 4;30 received an email alert from FedEx, package was delivered. I jumped up, knowing no one had rang the bell and assumed they just left it at the door and went on. Nope, nothing there. walked the 50 yards down the drive to the mailbox and a white box is leaning against the mail box in the 6" of snow we just got....

Had I not gotten the email, I would have never known and as the others the signature was a little short scribble.

Drivers are either too busy to complete their routes within the allotted time, or lazy. The USPS fairly often does not come to the door asking me to sign, they just leave it in the box or on the porch. I don't get much by Fed Ex, but they have always asked for a signature.

I agree. That's the bottom line. And until FedEx has to pay dearly, very dearly, for the situation, it's not going to change.

Like businesses selling goods budget for return costs, Fed Ex probably just sets aside a reserve for negligence or theft claims, and whatever internal reform would be necessary to reduce them probably isn't worth the cost.
