CLICK HERE if You Want to Look at Listings!

Remember the good old days when you opened up a mail chute on the side of the Post Office and dumped your mail inside?  Remember the sense of confidence you had trusting your mail with the Post Office and the surety in knowing that it would be delivered?

What you are seeing here is the brazen heist of three stuffed to the nuts, mailboxes from right in front of the Maple Ridge Post Office.  Apparently Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows are the the midst of a crisis of mail theft on a unprecedented scale.

The S(t)uper Mailboxes and the Standup units, like the ones that were stolen from the Maple Ridge post office, are no match for a chain wrapped around them and attached to a speeding off truck.  I find myself timing my mail dropoff to coincide with the scheduled pickup and never dump mail on a weekend.  I have obtained a Post Office Box that I can trust for my mail delivery. 

Identity theft is at a crisis, creditors and credit agencies don't give you the benefit of the doubt.  You are convicted until you prove yourself innocent in their eyes.  Be warned, be wary!  If they can steal 3 stuffed mailboxes from in front of the Maple Ridge Post Office, then your neighborhood box is just as easy a target.  I know that most of the victims of the Maple Ridge heist are completely unaware of their victimization. 

Don't get me started on those readily available keys for the S(t)uper Mailboxes, thats an entirely different story.  Maple Ridge real estate isn't the only place where this is happening, this one just hits close to my home.
