‘Why y’all acting like it’s okay for one person to steal from another person,’ someone else asked. ‘Stealing from a corporation, sure okay, random person, no.’
One person suggested it may have been an innocent mistake, asking: ‘Do you think maybe she realized the package was for the wrong house and took it to the right one? I mean you can’t really tell what’s in the box…’
There were also those who doubted the story, claiming it wasn’t Vitaly’s video.
‘Something feels off about this…’ someone else noted. ‘In one comment he says “should I sue?” and in another “going to court next month” in the same day…’
When contacted, a spokesperson from Amazon said that the matter is still being investigated, but noted that this kind of incident is not a common occurence.
