A gift is stuck, and you have to pay.

What this episode is

Someone is told a gift is stuck at customs and feels excited. The FTC says having to pay to receive a package is a scam.

This is a plan for an episode. It is not about a real person. Real episodes are only made with someone who says yes on camera and signs a release.

What Mathew covers

  • Pay to receive a package
  • A fee nobody can explain
  • A shipping company you never heard of
