UPS Workers Allegedly Re-Routed Packages to Themselves

ATLANTA, GA -- Seven former and current UPS employees are on trial near Atlanta for allegedly putting fake shipping labels on electronic devices in order to steal them, according to a report.

Workers and a supervisor at the UPS Customer Center near Forest Park would put new labels on electronics from Best Buy which directed the packages to their own homes, WSB-TV says. Investigators say the scheme went on for nine months until UPS’ security systems took notice.

UPS has since fired all the suspects, according to WSB-TV.
