I received a small envelope today with the contents missing. Included was a letter from USPS stating that the contents had fallen out due to a problem with the contents. The letter doesnt have a return address but is stamped from Austria and I don't remember buying a single chip from anyone from Austria.

If you have nothing to do with it, there is a possibility your name and address was on a letter or parcel that has been re-used by someone else to send something.

I forgot about Unzlbunzl. I did buy some chips from him about a month ago but have already received them. I'll have to check with him. Thanks Jerome!
