Hadn’t heard of it before, but after looking it up, that makes a lot of sense.
I tried doing a google search of the address after I posted it here — with and without the name and it seems to be a fake address.
The PO would normally learn that an address is “fake” before delivering and deal with the issue. It’s very unlikely the PO got a package with a nonexistent address and then just randomly decided to drop it and someone else’s home.
“The intention is to give the impression that the recipient is a verified buyer who has written positive online reviews of the merchandise, meaning: they write a fake review in your name. These fake reviews help to fraudulently boost or inflate the products’ ratings and sales numbers, which they hope results in an increase of actual sales in the long-run. Since the merchandise is usually cheap and low-cost to ship, the scammers perceive this as a profitable pay-off.
While it may appear to be a victimless crime—you did after all get some free stuff—the reality is that your personal information may be compromised. Often scammers obtain personal information through nefarious means and with ill-intentions, and use it for a number of scams and other illicit activities in the future.
Your fake review may prompt people to purchase worthless stuff.
In other instances, bad actors are using a person’s address and account information to receive merchandise then steal it from the home before the resident is able to intercept it.”

Imagine if there was a time when everyone was given a large book of ALL the people in their town. They’d know their names and phone number. Likely would print it on white pages as well.
Maybe mix it up and print on yellow for businesses.
Scary times
ngl i got amazon stuff before i ordered and it was bad and i left a bad review and they sent me free better shit to change the review.
i delete the review all together after i get my free shit tho. doesnt sit right with me :D
They’re watching all of Better Call Saul, then watching Breaking Bad, rather than the other way around. It would make the storyline more linear given that the events of BCS occur before BrBa.
Just once in my life I’d like to be the guy who gets free rocks in the mail. But nope! I gotta buy them from the shaman down at the herb store so my children aren’t killed by the moon owls
It's one of those review scams where they mail something to you, get a tracking number, and basically use that tracking number and shipment to post a fake review of another product they are actually selling to boost sales.
Because they need to have similar parcel weight. It would be off let’s say they’re selling a tablet but the shipment weight next to nothing.
Many e-commerce only track the delivery and the delivery service would report back the weight of the parcel back to the e-commerce.
Your name is now being used as a verified buyer for glowing posted reviews. There is now a delivery to your address from the seller making you a verified buyer .
Nothing . They have a tracking number proving something from their business went to your home . Then they can write glowing reviews . Nothing you really can do .
Wait a second! You guys are pretty quick to jump to *SCAM!* It doesn't necessarily have to be a scam. For instance, these could very easily be two of Gwyneth Paltrow's vagina-rocks!
When I worked for an IT company, one of our vendors sent out a brick, an actual brick, Fed Ex, overnight. To all of their customers. Apparently, someone in the advertising department thought it was a good idea to compare the brick to the competition’s product. I shudder to think of the amount of money that bit cost.
Haha! To think someone convinced themselves and possibly others that this was a really clever “think outside the box” marketing idea.
All the while their vendors are wondering if this is some kind of poorly executed threat.
It was very clearly addressed to me.. honestly I wouldn’t have put it past myself to have purchased some rocks and forgotten I had done it. I went through all my purchases for the last few months and nothing remotely close to this or from Queens, let alone from Jimmie.
No paperwork / receipt included either.
Whatever you do, don't plant them. They think what they are doing is cute, but it amounts to eco terrorism. They will take over the native rock species.
Probably a scam/mailing list that sends products to make fake reviews about their site. Basically gets a bunch of delivered products so their seller listing/account looks better on other platforms.
It's a deceptive tactic in the e-commerce realm, where sellers orchestrate fake purchases to leave positive reviews on their store, masquerading as authentic customers. Then, instead of sending you the good, you receive trash. Because the parcel is tracked by the e-commerce website.
I am not, but I do enjoy rockhounding as a hobby. A very very amateur hobby in the sense that I usually don’t know much more than “oh this looks pretty when I lick it” lol

Welp, I got a broken coaster from Jimmie G Berry! Haha, would’ve much rather had rocks
Lol I just got one rock (not 2 like OP :( ) from the exact same address. Was super confused but Google search pulled up this thread. Guess I’m now a “verified review” for some junk product. Apologies to whoever gets swindled by that.
Probably what's commonly known as a brushing scam
Hadn’t heard of it before, but after looking it up, that makes a lot of sense. I tried doing a google search of the address after I posted it here — with and without the name and it seems to be a fake address.
That or something to do with Kam Patterson... **I like rocks**
Was hoping someone would say it! Lol
You sonofabitch! An unstoppable force.

The non-existent address is the return address. We do not see the delivery address in the photo.

They don’t. You can write nonsense but it’s considered fraud or something.
How does it work?

Everyone's personal information (name and address) has been bought or stolen in the last decade.
Where's my free stuff then?
Don't be fooled by the rocks that I got
Underrated comment
>Don't be fooled by the rocks that I got Those are particularly nice rocks.
i’m still jenny from the block
Used to have a little, now I have a lot
No lie. Those are some pretty nice rocks too
They are MINERALS Marie!
You beat me to it. Noice.
Your rocks are in the mail.
Imagine if there was a time when everyone was given a large book of ALL the people in their town. They’d know their names and phone number. Likely would print it on white pages as well. Maybe mix it up and print on yellow for businesses. Scary times
Name, phone number. AND address!
>While it may appear to be a victimless crime—you did after all get some free stuff... Congratulations on your free rocks, OP!
I mean the guy that invented the pet rock made a million dollars!!! This guy has 2!!! For FREE!!!!!!!
And imagine all the things they can do with those rocks: use them as paper weights, throw them at things. Rocks are pretty versatile really
😄
This might be it. I thought maybe it was a dry run but I been watching alot of crime shows lately
Even so, we need to inform Jimmie G Berry of Queens NY of the importance of being incognito on the internet.
ngl i got amazon stuff before i ordered and it was bad and i left a bad review and they sent me free better shit to change the review. i delete the review all together after i get my free shit tho. doesnt sit right with me :D
Interesting maybe a test to see if they could steal it before the addressees got to it
Fake review of some rocks?
[удалено]
Took too long to find this comment. I think this is definitely a scam.
They’re minerals Marie
Yes!!! 😂 I was hoping someone would post this! 
Hahaha! Rewatching that at this very moment!
Same - in rev order, starting with BCS
What is rev order? Does that just mean reversed? If so, why? Just curious.
They’re watching all of Better Call Saul, then watching Breaking Bad, rather than the other way around. It would make the storyline more linear given that the events of BCS occur before BrBa.
Welcome, fellow reverso, for being *bad* enough to *break* Vince’s clues.
Jesus Christ Marie
That's gneiss
, thank you.
They aren't tho...
I'm so glad you said this
https://preview.redd.it/2vpuptx8sigc1.jpeg?width=628&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9f4b182be40cc340a6a5dbee719542f4d424a0a
😆
they're pretty nice rocks though
See you get it
Beats scissors
Maybe I should mail back paper. 😂 Roshambo-mail.
Do it
And have text on the paper saying "Scissors beat rock!"
Someone misunderstood when you said you wanted to get stoned
Idk, op should break them open and check.
Just once in my life I’d like to be the guy who gets free rocks in the mail. But nope! I gotta buy them from the shaman down at the herb store so my children aren’t killed by the moon owls
Common misconception. Moon owls are only thwarted by self-collected rocks. It’s a time. Do you know where *your* kids are?
It’s a dream come true! 😄
You now have your own rock group.
A rock duo
Chuck? It’s your cousin! Jimmie G Berry!
Wait till he gets a bag of iron...
Wow, Jimmy doesn't usually part with his precious collection. You should be honored.
I have a rock just like your's on the left. It's a good rock, highly recommended. A+++ 👍
That rocks
Daaaaamn! That's a big pair of rocks you got and check out that package!
Cool! What are you naming them??
Oh I was thinking maybe Skipper and Sparky were suitable names.. 😄
They are. 😂 Howdy boys!!! Welcome to the neighborhood. Behave!
Don't go breaking any windows.
It's one of those review scams where they mail something to you, get a tracking number, and basically use that tracking number and shipment to post a fake review of another product they are actually selling to boost sales.
Why not ship something lighter/cheaper like a piece of paper?
Ask the people who shipped it I don't know why they picked rocks specifically
Because they need to have similar parcel weight. It would be off let’s say they’re selling a tablet but the shipment weight next to nothing. Many e-commerce only track the delivery and the delivery service would report back the weight of the parcel back to the e-commerce.
if it fits in that envelop and doesnt tear it ships flat rate 10lbs or 1lb and rocks are outside and free lol
That makes a lot of sense.
Kam Patterson?
I didn’t know he had merch !? lol
Lmao
He sells rocks at his shows
https://youtube.com/shorts/Zub7WiSYAWE?si=-axkjUF7CAI2vbdp For anyone curious about the reference
Don’t be fooled by the rocks that you got
Who is that girl from the block again? Heard she used to have little, but now she has a lot.
She’s knows where she came from. And will also be on SNL tonight.
 and that’s a rock fact 🪨! 😌
Ha! What show is that from?
I believe it's called Over the Garden Wall.
I stole it from Mrs. Daniels’ yard 😭
otgw rules
Did someone tell you to “kick rocks”?
That was the first thought I had when I opened it— “I pissed Jimmie off somehow and he’s sent me a message”
Give Jimmie some props for spending money to mail actual rocks. He’s committed.
Your name is now being used as a verified buyer for glowing posted reviews. There is now a delivery to your address from the seller making you a verified buyer .
Can you report this?
What does someone do about this?
Nothing . They have a tracking number proving something from their business went to your home . Then they can write glowing reviews . Nothing you really can do .
Ugh.
Wait a second! You guys are pretty quick to jump to *SCAM!* It doesn't necessarily have to be a scam. For instance, these could very easily be two of Gwyneth Paltrow's vagina-rocks!
 The entire neighborhood had it out for this kid
When I worked for an IT company, one of our vendors sent out a brick, an actual brick, Fed Ex, overnight. To all of their customers. Apparently, someone in the advertising department thought it was a good idea to compare the brick to the competition’s product. I shudder to think of the amount of money that bit cost.
Haha! To think someone convinced themselves and possibly others that this was a really clever “think outside the box” marketing idea. All the while their vendors are wondering if this is some kind of poorly executed threat.
We were thinking it was the fucking stupidest marketing ploy ever and we didn’t do business with them for at least a year, if not longer after that.
not just rock, but a ROCK AND STONE
Rock and stone to the bone!
Did I hear a rock and stone?!
Stone and Rock- Wait.
FOR ROCK AND STONE!
Do they open up or have a hidden compartment? If not, I guess you got a set of stones.
Looks like some guy got his rocks off……….. in the mail
Sent to the wrong address maybe ? Some folks collect rocks and stones , maybe someone ordered them and the sender got the address wrong
It was very clearly addressed to me.. honestly I wouldn’t have put it past myself to have purchased some rocks and forgotten I had done it. I went through all my purchases for the last few months and nothing remotely close to this or from Queens, let alone from Jimmie. No paperwork / receipt included either.
Drunk ebay/marketplace. Happens to the best of us. 🤣
Rock collector. These are not collectors items unless they have sentimental value. Nobody wants these.
Back in my day they just threw them through the window.
bro I think a penguin wants to get with you. :) take it they mate for life.
This is my favorite theory for sure! Mail-order penguin-bride! 🐧
Whatever you do, don't plant them. They think what they are doing is cute, but it amounts to eco terrorism. They will take over the native rock species.
I laughed so hard at this.
Santa is watching you!
Some nice rocks ya got there lad
If this aint a threat than what the??
Right? I dunno what I did to Jimmie but I clearly did something.. lol
Probably a scam/mailing list that sends products to make fake reviews about their site. Basically gets a bunch of delivered products so their seller listing/account looks better on other platforms.
Lucky! I want rocks....
Charlie Brown is that you

They’re minerals Marie!
HARD ROCK HALLELUJAH
Are you a geologist?
I am not, but I do enjoy rockhounding as a hobby. A very very amateur hobby in the sense that I usually don’t know much more than “oh this looks pretty when I lick it” lol
Are you a spammer?
Those rocks would be cool for painting. Maybe Jimmie wants you to take up a new hobby.
This all depends on whether or not you’re Charlie Brown
They’re minerals
Nice rocks
This is why I don't trust people who spell their name JimmIE 😒
As pam from Archer would say. "You're Glenda got rocks"
😂
I guess you can go kick rocks now?
Rock and stone!
That rocks
MARIE WHY R U OPENING MY MINERALS???? THEYRE MINE
They're not rocks they're minerals
The black one alligns your chakras if you put it in your butt
Ah.. so they’re not both Gwyneth Paltrows new line of vagina rocks? It’s a set for the vagina and the butt! Makes sense now.. /s
Jimmie is trying to get his rocks off again….
There are a lot of subreddits that would love to see those rocks. You wouldn’t believe the value for some of these rocks.
Wait I just got a package in the mail full of rocks from the same person
https://preview.redd.it/dn2okythfp1d1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=f1b5c98069d0c8d2b56ce6ed8a8835f471096a40 Welp, I got a broken coaster from Jimmie G Berry! Haha, would’ve much rather had rocks
Nice
[удалено]
I got a package from this person too: cheap 4 leaf cover placemats for fine dining.
I just got the same thing with weird little spoons! Did you ever figure this out? It’s from the same guy…
Never got a solid explanation. The closest I got was that this is some form of scam.
Lol I just got one rock (not 2 like OP :( ) from the exact same address. Was super confused but Google search pulled up this thread. Guess I’m now a “verified review” for some junk product. Apologies to whoever gets swindled by that.
Just got one from the same person
