Here’s another peek into my collection; a few illegal Postage usages upon mail of which successfully went through USPS without being flagged for Postage Due.  The audacity of some people whom of which definitely know what they are doing.

The first one shows this individual used the label from a double-sided convertible booklet of stamps… 

The second one uses a single 1 cent stamp in lieu of a 1‑ounce First‑Class Mail letter Forever Stamp rate of .55 cents.  I am sure the sender knew the going rate at the time, but sneakily under posted this letter to illicitly save .54 cents.

The third and final one I have to show reaches a level audacity of “Ballsy” I’d say, by the use of a previously used stamp clearly torn from a manila envelope and then simply taped upon a fresh envelope for mailing…

What really sticks in my craw is the above examples of illegal Postage use were sent by Attorneys.  You would think they are familiar with the illegality of such.  But since an Attorney “nickels and dimes” their clients, I am sure their bills did not reflect these costs.

It is a shame these were not caught by USPS and returned for proper Postage.  These are just another example of revenue loss suffered by the taxpayer, along with the copious counterfeit Postage from our friends in China.

If anyone out there has other examples of illicit Postage use, please share.  But remember to cover the addresses upon same so as not to invoke ire.
