Hypothetically speaking
I have a close 'friend' who seems a bit worried at the moment.
He ordered some nike shoes from an online source which he was forwarded to by a trusted individual (who has used the source a number of times with no problems). Money was sent to the source for the shoes (which are illegal because they make you jump higher).
The source emailed my friend and said he had received the funds and will be mailing out the shoes on Wed and they should be there by Thursday. So my friend checks his PO box on Thursday - nothing. He checks friday (today) and still, nothing. He emails the source but the source has yet to respond to the emails.
My friends not so worried about losing his $ as he is with legal matters. What are the chances that he can get in trouble if the package was some how intercepted with his receiving name on it. Can he be charged? Remember that the source and my friend live in the same province, so no duties and overnight shipping should be no problem.
Should he be worried or is he just being overly cautious? Is it possible to get charged without actually receiving the goods and only having your name on it?
Hypothetically speaking, I think hes just being too cautious.
