it's more likely a shitty neighbor is leaving that on your doorstep for whatever reason than some rando in the neighborhood breaking in multiple times and walking up and down 5 flights to dump garbage

It's the oddest thing. I don't talk to anyone in the apt either.

My fear is that someone I tracking when I'm home by how fast I remove the package.

Thank you for the feed back will post in that other reddir

that's possible. get a doorbell camera to see who's doing it. and always lock your deadbolt when leaving

This is hella odd. Maybe invest in a doorbell cam. some of my neighbors have them.

Maybe you've got a neighbor that doesn't like you and they're sending a sign?

I don't talk to anyone here or have interacted with anyone. I also don't make any disturbances.

So it's possible...but I think unlikely which is why I'm so confused

This happened in my building, although not that high up. in the winter, when it's really cold, high school kids sneak into the building to smoke in the hallways, there's always snack wrappers left all over the stairs.

How is anyone supposed to answer this?

OMG, trash in the hallway? You better call the FBI and maybe seal team 6!

It seems targeted, thats what concerns me. Not so much the trash.

I've been burglarized before so that definitely playing into my anxiety about this

Don't touch it. Don't let them track you. Install doorbell cam. Collect proof if anything happens. If you are a woman, please take care of yourself. Better safe then sorry.

People are getting high on the roof and throwing their munchies out at your door step.

Other people are mocking you in this thread, but this would be quite suspicious for me too as someone who grew up in a pretty unsafe town. Doubly so since you mention you've been burglarized before.

This has been going on for decades in NYC. It is from the Santamaria religion, which is practiced in some portions of South America and combines aspects of witchcraft and Christianity. Unfortunately, the placing of half eaten snacks at or on your door is a sign that you have been marked for human sacrifice.

They might want to drug you
