Porch Piracy Surges as Prime Day Approaches, Study Finds

A new Ecigone study using SafeWise data estimates Americans lose about $14.9 billion in package theft annually, with over 104 million deliveries stolen nationwide, as Prime Day (June 23–26) approaches. Chicago and New York City lead in total losses, while per-capita theft is highest in Virginia Beach and Baltimore’s ranking has surged. The report advises shoppers to use secure delivery options (Amazon Lockers, signature confirmations, delivery-day scheduling) and to enable delivery alerts or video doorbells to deter thieves during big shopping events.

Holiday Season Alert: Protect Your Packages from Porch Pirates

With the rise of online shopping during the holiday season, the threat of porch pirates stealing packages from doorsteps is increasing. To protect your deliveries, consider using a video doorbell to deter thieves and capture their faces. Choose a delivery date when someone will be home, sign up for delivery notifications, and talk to your delivery drivers to ensure safe placement of packages. Utilize Amazon Lockers or install a locking delivery box or smart mailbox for added security. Another option is Amazon Key In-Garage Delivery, which allows packages to be securely placed inside your garage. Stay informed about nearby package theft reports and consider requesting a signature confirmation for deliveries. By implementing these strategies, you can keep your packages safe and enjoy a worry-free holiday season.
