The delivery driver was working at that time, why wasn't the receptionist!?
edit: Thanks to everyone who's pointed out that this is a scam - and who gave advice/or worried about me. I was half asleep this morning, it didn't click (though I did notice that the url wasn't evri - I'm too used to vendors passing me over to third party websites). It doesn't help that the evri helpline is robots only. No bank details lost though.
Better question, what kind of a scam company charges for redelivery?
Hermes... Oh wait, they rebranded as Evri because of bad reputation.
It's somewhat beside the point that the recipient has no contract with Evri to deliver, that's all on the sender; what should happen is the recipient just ignores the redelivery charge notice and tells the sender that it hasn't been delivered... Let the two parties to the contract sort it out.
Its a good point [edit: this is what I'll do]. Of course, there's a chance that I actually want the thing that I bought. I'd like to be clear that there are much greater injustices, but it is a boring dystopia...
