When forwarding your mail to another address, does a mail carrier (The UPS Store) have the right to open your personal mail in order to ship more mail in the same parcel without consumer consent?
Is this violating any postal law or codes?
If so, what type of lawyer should I see?|||Tampering with US mail is a federal offense punishable with a prison sentence. Proving the Store is responsible may be difficult to prove however they cannot open it and stuff more mail inside, they could only add more mail to the original and place everything in a larger box. File a complaint with the state police.|||no, it's illegal. Call your local post master. They're at the post office...........|||the only person able to open mail by law is the name of the person it is mailed to|||No they do not have the right; that is actually a federal offense and a felony. You can press criminal charges for that.|||I'm not 100% sure it is illegal. The people who have answered yes think you mean the USPS, but you're talking about the UPS store. That's different than mailing something through the mail. But I would still guess that it IS illegal for them to do that.|||yes its illegal but the burdon of proof is on u. How can u prove this?|||BY six sense%26lt;YES against the law|||its the violating, if the item is too big they can get bigger box or something they cant open it...but its minor crime.|||No sense calling the post office.. you did not USE the post office, which is a Federal service. UPS store is a private business. And I have never heard of them "forwarding" things.. but don't quote me on that.
Instead of running to a lawyer.. why don't you just call the UPS store main office and ask them? It may be worth a complaint.. but a complaint is not a lawsuit.
edit-
paralegal researcher should learn the difference between US federal mail and private shippers.|||I may be wrong, but I think they can open mail under certain circumstances. (If they suspect a drug shipment).
