Mail theft in Seattle has become such a bad problem that the United States Postal Service paused deliveries to the 98118 zip code.
Around 900 customers in the area from Columbia City to Rainier Beach were told to pick up their mail from the local post office, prompting massive lines.

A thief had stolen a USPS master key that allowed them to open all collection boxes, parcel lockers, and cluster box units.

A notice on a mailbox stated, “Due to the rise in mail theft and vandalism we will be holding all mail for your address. We do not have an exact date of when all master locks will be replaced,” according to a report from King 5.
