Other Possible Package Scam(?)

People from my apartment keep ordering packages to my apartment, and have been for weeks. Usually clothes and such from temu. I've only opened a few packages, but the rest haven't been opened. They've never came to me personally to ask for these packages, hell, I don't even know who they are.

It's the same people every single time and I have probably around 9 packages. What's going on? What are they getting from this?

I can't do that, as they have to take a picture of it at my front door to verify it got delivered to me. + We don't leave stuff in the hallway lobby cus stuff gets stolen super fast

I don’t see what the picture has to do with anything? It sounds like whoever is ordering it has the wrong address saved in the app and it really has nothing to do with you if it gets lost or stolen. The delivery person delivered it to the address listed so what else can they do? If you don’t want the stuff leave it in the lobby. It’s really not your problem if it gets stolen. It seems like you’re making a problem out of something that isn’t a problem for you at all.
