FTIDv1 is the most basic FTID. It's literally just sending out an empty parcel with your label. That is it.
Pros: + Simple to use + High efficiency.
Cons: - It's an old trick that most companies have figured out. - It may not be effective.
FTIDv2:
FTIDv2 requires that you remove all identifiable information from your shipping label.
You should remove information like:
- Order IDs.
- Include return address, name, and phone number.
Pros: + Simple.
Cons: - Companies typically check tracking numbers to determine if they match.
FTIDv3:
This method is one of the most common FTIDs you'll come across.
FTIDv3 requires that you edit the label in the following ways:
Change the return address to a nearby location and the phone number to something similar.
Name - Change to something random.
Tracking number: Change to something similar.
Weight - edit as needed (e.g., if applying to envelope, edit to 0.1kg).
Shipping address - Open Google Maps and look for a valid address nearby. The new address should be in the same town as the old one.
Pros: + Commonly used for refunds/SEs + Highly effective with a 95% success rate + Supported by most couriers during investigations.
Cons: - Editing requires Adobe Acrobat software. - Matching fonts can be challenging. - Some couriers may be resistant to FTIDs.
FTIDv4 involves printing a single-sided flyer with an advertisement on one side and placing the ftid3 label on the opposite side (without the advertisement). This is typically used for international orders to expedite customs clearance or for faster shipping with budget shipping labels. It is sometimes referred to as 'advanced' FTID3, but this is not true. Typically used for international orders.
FTIDv5 has multiple versions, but the barcode method remains the same.
- Use a barcode generator, add your tracking number to it, and replace the label.
- Create a QR code that contains a similar or unreadable tracking number.
- This method is completely unnecessary unless you're making a fake return.
FTIDv6: Lost In Transit
This is once again one of the most popular methods in SEs/Refunds.
There are several methods for doing this, so I'll go over the three most common.
Method 1: Get your label.
Attach to the parcel.
Continue to beat the living fucking shit out of the parcel.
Send a beaten up, empty parcel.
Courier will notice the parcel looks like shit and investigate further to discover it is empty.
The box will be thrown away.
Pros: + Easy for beginners.
Cons: - Courier may refuse to accept or dispose of parcels. - Can be temperamental and unreliable.
Method 2: Get the label.
Remove the address for their warehouse.
Get a transparent ink that is automatically removed in less than 48 hours.
Write with ink their warehouse address.
Send the parcel.
When the courier attempts to deliver, the warehouse address disappears.
The courier will mark the package as lost during transit.
Can also be accomplished by using vanishing printer ink.
Advantages: + Highly effective + Versatile application options
Cons: - Expensive - Time-consuming to set up.
Method 3: Tape a small box as if it contains something.
Place the label on the parcel.
On the opposite side, slash the box with a knife.
Repeat if everything looks fine.
Reach into the box and run your hand along the cut. This widens the hole and makes it appear as if someone reached into the box to retrieve the contents.
Tape it up POORLY and with a different colour tape.
Send off the parcel.
Pros: + Simple to use + High efficiency.
