[INFO] Another package, same contents

I got my fedex today from Margaret's Honey. It was sent on July 15, but to my old address. No phone number is listed for Margaret. Her suite number is #510. I posted pics at http://deaddrop.us/ilovebees/

I poured it figuring those little nanobots could work on cleaning my drain.

Did any of you honey-getters look on the back/under the label to see if there were any interesting bits of information there?

Nope. There was a number stamped on the container, but it looked to be something from the manufacturer. I'll check it when I get home and post it, just in case.

Hey Bill how long has it been since you were at that address? Any chance that you moved after the Beast? Maybe they are using old contact lists?

I moved from there 8 months ago and I wasn't around for the Beast.

Not sure if this would be acceptable but something to consider trying.

Compare the tracking numbers on the two known packages. This would be a bit easier if they are close to being sequential but you could check tracking info on other tracking numbers that are close and see if any others were sent about the same time/from the same person/location. Granted it is a mail box place so that could cause a problem. Not sure this would even halp any other than to give an idea of how many of these were sent out and maybe to whom sent.

The tracking info for this package (number 847009898877) is as follows (Sorry about the stupid formatting of the page... you can go to www.fedex.com and select USA, then 'track', then add the above number to see it for yourself). Usually, if traveling between states, you'd see information about distribution centers in the tracking information. Then again, it was express-overnight, so maybe they don't bother with that kind of information... Anyway, not much going on here, but you never know.

FWIW, the tracking number for the ARGN package:

847009898811

Tracking info confirms that it was indeed sent from San Francisco.

Here is what I found in a quick check on FedEx. It looks like there may be at least an additional 3 packages that have gone out from her.
Code:

847009898811   1:52 pm  Pickup status   SAN FRANCISCO CA   Payment Received  TO: LAS VEGAS NV
847009898822   1:52 pm  Pickup status   SAN FRANCISCO CA   Payment Received  TO: PORTLAND OR
847009898844   1:52 pm  Pickup status   SAN FRANCISCO CA   Payment Received  TO: BELLEVUE WA
847009898866   1:52 pm  Pickup status   SAN FRANCISCO CA   Payment Received  TO: SEATTLE WA
847009898877   Not showing all info because of the wrong address but we know TO: TAMPA FL
      it was the same as the others.

The only valid numbers in the 8470098988** series appear to be the ones ending with the last two digits being the same.
All the double digit numbers that are not listed here do not match the above date/time pattern.
I do not know the proper numbering pattern to be able to check any numbers prior to or after this series.

Wonder if any of these went to someone at Microsoft.
