Had a package that I didn’t order confiscated by US customs

Not sure what to do; got a love letter from CBP about some test, Proviron and tamoxifen they confiscated that was supposedly addressed to me. Crazy thing is I didn’t even order it. Should I worry about criminal charges? They said the value of the items was 10k! Which is crazy for a little testosterone

How do you know it was a "LITTLE" Testosterone?
 
You sure it was from customs? They normally don't tell you what they confiscated nor do they test in that great detail. I wouldn't worry about criminal prosecution; if they were going to do that they would have carried out the delivery and surveiled you until you did something with them like try to sell them or held them long enough for you to know what you have. Honestly this sounds more like the start of a scam though. .. I'd say ignore anymore letters

Yeah. I contacted a lawyer and they ran the number on the letter through the Customs website and found it. Lawyer told me to ignore the letter and keep my nose clean for 5 years.

My biggest concern is that the amount they said the contraband was worth (11k) would cause them to press charges. My lawyer did say that’s like a drop in the ocean to them, so maybe I’ll be safe.

Just hoping I don’t find a citation or something in the mail the next few weeks. The letter said I may have “civil penalties” that may be sent to me in a different letter.
 
You say you didn't order anything and your not interested in picking up a package you didn't order. Is far as I know, your only guilty if you accept the package

Yep
Unless you they can prove he ordered it.
Which they can't.

I’m hoping that’s the case lol.

I was spazzing out pretty good yesterday but I’ve researched it on a few forums and they’ve talked me off the ledge.

I am in the healthcare industry for work so I’m also slightly concerned about that, but I would think if no charges are brought then I should be ok
