Guns And More Guns, From Staight Shooter:

Update

I received a followup call from the complaint investigator. He wanted to re verify that I did not sign for the package. I told him I did not, that I was at work.

The investigator said that the driver told him that he got an "indirect" signature from a neighbor (he had another delivery a few doors down) but the neighbor did not want to hold on to the package and told the driver to leave it at my front door so he did. Then later the driver realized that he had not "closed the call" on his scanner and typed my name into it to close out the call instead of the name of the neighbor who signed for it.

His last comment to me was that the drivers story is not making sense and that this is boiling down to forgery and that they have a zero-tolerance policy toward forgery.

c) utters any writing which he knows to be forged.
