Package tampering

Package tampering involves intentionally altering or interfering with a product during shipping or delivery, often to introduce sabotage, contamination, or theft. This can include opening packages, replacing items, or contaminating contents before they reach the customer. Such actions compromise safety and trust, posing risks to consumers and brands. Detecting tampering often involves seal checks, tamper-evident packaging, and monitoring procedures to ensure products remain unchanged from the time they’re packaged until they reach the customer. Overall, package tampering undermines product integrity and can have serious health and security implications.
