>UPS notification in my no-name dicking around email address

I never entered any email address into my brother's amazon account. How the fuck did they figure out to send it to my other email?

UPS could have cross referenced your Amazon shipping details with what was in their database. You probably entered that email on a previous purchase.

Do you have a UPS account? they notify the day before delivery on all packages with tracking.

>>57888089
Yes but I didn't enter the email associated with it into the Amazon account.

>>57888120
It doesnt have anything to do with amazon. if you have a UPS account, UPS sends that email whenever you have a package coming.

But how did they figure out which UPS account to send it to without any direct input from Amazon? Keep in mind I selected the prime shipping option and all I gave was my name and home address for delivery.

UPS has your address. When they scan it into their system, a bot scrapes the data and compares it with addresses that have UPS accounts tied to them. Then, once the pakage is scheduled to be delivered the following day, another script sends out an email to the email address tied to that account. Amazon doesnt have ANY part in this process that ends up with you getting an email from UPS.

>>57889874

>having a UPS account
