You could always talk to the guy, say you have video of him talking about the juice, and give him the opportunity to return the goods before you report him for a Federal offence. Feds take mail carriers stealing mail very seriously -- I've heard of a mailman getting a few years in prison (in addition to losing his job and pension) for stealing mail in Florida.

And give the thief a chance to dispose of it? No...I'll sleep quite well if he loses his job and does time. If he's stolen from me, he's stolen from others.

The owner of the company is removing her company name from the return address for all future packages she sends out. I told her to use the initials of the company, or only use the address. Anyone who vapes knows that packages from XXX XXXXXX Vapes is product for e-cigs.

I can't stand thieves...

If this guy were stealing bread to feed his family, I would understand, show compassion and do something. I might even give him money because he'll do anything to feed his family.

Not this case.

I know a guy that I used to employ as a day laborer for 100/day, because I thought he really needed the money. He used to tell me he could only work one day in a row, because he had other jobs lined up. Good for him! I thought.

Then i found out from the local bar owner that the guy ordered and drank 9 beers, smoked a pack and half outside the bar, got escorted home by a sympatheic waitress who dropped him off ta the door, and received the rest of the 100 as a tip.

He has not been hired since.
