  No, this is fake. You can put whatever you want in the envelope and send it back, but they won’t deliver a whole package. They only prepaid postage for a letter.

  Of course if you send something dangerous/threatening you might get arrested.

  It wouldn’t surprise me if one slipped through, there are overrides on stuff that get rejected and USPS is a massive organization with millions of parcels moving at any given moment.

  This idea came from people mailing wooden shims back to the credit card companies because it would increase the postage cost over the normal weight… Please don’t do that though. Letters go through a Dr. Seuss Esque sorter system and the shims are too sturdy and sometimes get ripped out of the mail and shot across the facility…

      Feel free to stuff as much paper as you can fit, it’s just wood and plastics that are too rigid for the machines to handle sometimes. USPS gets money for returm mailing, so it’s a benfit to them as long as shims or pieces of plastic arent flying around the facility like a bullet.
