UPS and Fedex have made the fatal mistake of dropping off their items before even trying to collect their fees. Then they spam my (postal) mailbox with letters about having to pay extortionate brokerage fees. Can't say I've paid them all and can say they give up pretty quick if you circle file them.
FedEx recently started sending me mail to my parent's address saying I owe them $65 for a product I bought from the US a while ago... in 2014. I wonder if this is related to the whole Trump tariff thing? I haven't paid it, and I won't unless there's a good reason for me to.
Are you sure it is really FedEx? Definitely too old for tariffs. Probably too old for any claim against you. I’ve seen a lot of shipping related scams in the last two years.
Oh it's definitely real, because I recognize the product I bought, and it all matches up perfectly to my records. It even has an old phone number on the letter (but current at the time), which is probably why they haven't called me.
I vaguely remember paying the duties and customs in cash to the driver, but I don't know for sure. This was likely the first international purchase I ever made that had a separate duties charge, and I remember being surprised by how much it was when it was delivered.
