  1. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER agree to deliver packages from a Facebook or other online ad if you can't personally inspect everything that is inside. Not even if the person who you meet through the ad looks very frum. And not if it looks innocent like a car battery or anything else capable of concealing illegal items. I was once (over twenty five years ago) solicited to transfer something very illegal by an ad in a frum paper by a guy who spoke to me in Yiddish on the phone.
