Parcel Taken from Doorstep


Recommended Posts

Hi All,


I'm hoping this is just a neighbourly gesture, but as none of our neighbours were home today or recognise the chap captured on our ring camera we're assuming the worst.


Keep an eye out folks, this was on Goodrich Road around 14:57. Walked to our door with a large cardboard box, clocked the parcel on our doorstep, went next door and leaned over the fence- took the parcel and walked up the road towards the Dawson's Height's end.


If anyone knows a white guy wearing a green polo shirt, green shorts and black sliders today, please let me know as we've been in touch with the police due to the contents of the parcel.

I've seen two or three mentions now of carried empty cartons, preumably being used as a sort of camouflage. Are the people walking around with these or have they come by vehicle? Is there any possibility that they're combining opportunistic thieving with genuine courier work?

They were in a car as we heard the engine running and the door slam on the video. I think just opportunistic given the time from delivery to theft, but who knows- it sort of reminds me of the guys that just do the rounds checking skips for scrap, if you drive around long enough you might get lucky.


Anyway glitter bomb ordered as a "thank you" should they come back....

What should a person do about parcels being delivered to the doorstep only? I live on Upland Road which I understand has had several doorstep thefts. I've had 2 parcels delivered by Amazon in recent days and they were left on the step (doorbell rung) luckily I was home to bring them in pretty quickly so nothing lost. I feel bad for the delivery drivers as they have such impossible schedules but at the same time ...

    • That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this? 
    • I'm assuming that anybody who has a cat can afford  its food, litter, vets' fees etc. Nobody was saying that two quid is "nothing", but it's cheaper than some brands of cat litter, so was hopefully useful to the OP. Still, hopefully your post made you feel better 👍 🤣 We still don't know why there was a bag of cat litter at the bus stop! Surely it would be rather difficult to take it away unnoticed if the owner of the cat litter was  also at the bus stop? It's not like someone distracted your attention and picked your pocket and you didn't notice till some time later! But what is also confusing me is, if the OP knows where the thief lives, why don't they go and ask for their cat litter back?
    • The market is only there for a few hours on Saturdays! Surely all street markets are "a bit tatty"! That seems a strange reason to close a road permanently to traffic!  There is already at least one seat  in North Cross Road (which seems to be quite well used),  apart from those for customers of The Palmerston,  and several of the shops in the road have greenery outside 
    • Couple of potential ideas, anywhere in the East Dulwich areas or say close to the station?
