Apparently they do not understand Federal law much less local city law ordinances. If they had gotten a solicitors' permit from the ***** ******** Police department they would have been informed that there is a No Solicitor's registry which we are signed up for. Instead they bent our mailbox flag and mailbox out & jammed their spam onto our mailbox. Here's some Federal law requirements on such postings: Putting Items Into a Mailbox Only authorized USPS letter carriers may insert mail into a residential mailbox. The USPS Domestic Mail Manual is very clear that mailboxes are not to be used for anything other than official mail with postage attached, so you can't go around the neighborhood delivering flyers. It's prohibited to place anything on or around the mailbox, too, so you can't use them for placing stickers. Willfully violating these rules is the federal offense of "mailbox restriction," with fines as high as $5,000 per occurrence. Taking Items Out of a Mailbox It's a federal crime to steal someone's mailbox, to steal mail from a mailbox, or to snatch mail items that are in the process of delivery. It's a separate offense to take a letter in order to pry into the affairs of another person, even if you only look at the return address momentarily. Whether you're charged with mail theft or obstruction of correspondence, you're potentially looking at fines of up to $250,000 and five years' incarceration. The only exceptions are when you have the addressee's permission to handle the mail or you're legitimately dealing with a deceased person's affairs. Vandalizing a Mailbox Vandalizing a mailbox is also a federal crime. Vandalism in this context means any type of destruction or property damage to the mailbox itself or inserting something into the mailbox with the intention of defacing or destroying the mail inside. If you're found guilty of mailbox vandalism, you can expect a fine up to $250,000 and up to three years in a federal prison for each willful act.
