Folks Lose $846,000 Inheritance In The Mail

NY Post — The United Parcel Service lost a Canadian man’s $846,000 inheritance, and bank TD Canada Trust is refusing to refund the missing money 10 months later, according to a CBC report. UPS has only offered $32 and an apology letter — and TD hasn’t paid out a dime for the supposedly bank-guaranteed lost dough — leading to “many a night of lost sleep, and gnashing of teeth and anger. Frustration, unbelievable frustration” for Lorette Taylor and her brother Louis Paul Herbert, according to Taylor.
After their father died, Herbert said, he went to his local UPS store near Cornwall, Ontario, where he was expecting a package from sister Taylor containing his share of their inheritance in the form of a bank draft, but it never came.

Wait. Somebody shipped a $846,000.00 inheritance by UPS? Listen, I love Canadians as much as anyone but this is so Canadian it hurts. Just naïve like you read about. Nice of UPS to offer $32 though. That’s really big of them.

PS- Anything over $10-grand has to be hand delivered. That’s just common sense.
