Why are thieves suddenly going after Pokémon card orders?

MA maker1977 US 🛠️ Specialist 👁 114 ⚑ Report News & Events

Turns out that mail order thieves are targeting packages of Pokémon cards because the prices on these things have absolutely skyrocketed. If you're into collecting or selling cards, it's worth being careful about how you order and ship them. Might want to use signature required delivery or some kind of tracking to make sure your valuable cards actually make it to where they're supposed to go.

Not sure it's really "sudden" - high-value card theft has been a thing for a few years now as prices climbed, but yeah, thieves definitely know that a small package can contain hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of cards, so signature required and tracking are genuinely smart precautions if you're shipping anything valuable.
