Could this just be a database querying problem, and maybe no items were actually shipped as a result?



Nah... It's only a case of not reading the article...


Nope, that's what I thought it might be at first (though I think that would freak me out even more) but based on everything I heard from the Amazon CSRs this was someone replacing an item I had legitimately ordered (and received just fine more than a month ago), but social engineering the CSRs to send the replacement item to some random other address.
