I caught neighbour on doorbell camera stealing my parcel from right outside my front door…she had the most brazen excuse
A WOMAN told how she caught her neighbour stealing a parcel on a doorbell camera – before brushing it off with a brazen excuse.
Kennady Oliver was able to catch the parcel thief redhanded through her neighbour’s doorbell camera, and posted evidence of the whole ordeal on TikTok.
The thief, dressed in a particularly conspicuous black and white patterned dress, can first be seen approaching Kennady’s door before stopping and turning away.
Moments later, she returns, snatches the parcel, and turns away once again.
Kennady believes that the woman must have been aware of the camera, and explains that she seemingly attempted to avoid detection on several occasions.
On TikTok, Kennady says that the woman “clearly checks for cameras then ducks under peephole to avoid suspicion.”
But, it wasn’t long until the parcel thief was caught.
In another video, Kennedy explains that she was coming back from a dog walk when she saw the older woman outside her house.
She says: “I was so caught off guard. I didn’t actually think I was going to see her!”
She approached her and confronted her on the spot, stating that she saw her “on camera the other day taking a package from her door.”
However, this did very little to deter the parcel thief, who simply said that she had not taken any parcels, and was merely “checking the doors.”
Kennady said: “She kept asking for ‘more footage’ to deflect but my neighbour sent me all of the footage he had.”
The thief in question is then joined by another woman who continues to deny all the proof that she nabbed the parcel.
So Kennady presented the pair with the video.
The accompanying younger woman maintained that there had been some kind of misunderstanding, that the older woman had already returned it.
Kennady said that the older woman tried to hand her money, still claiming that she hadn’t stolen the parcel but that she would pay for it regardless.
She said “I didn’t want her money. I want the package, because I know she has it.”
Kennady threatened to call the police, although it is unclear if she followed through with this.
Another victim of parcel theft shared how she trapped the thief with a decoy.
And similar issues have been occurring worldwide, with brazen thieves stealing parcels in the UK.
