Great to see the newsagency being repurposed as a drop off point to collect parcels.
In terms of being a news agency, there's a selection of cards, gift wrapping and lottery ticket purchase.

Same here... Found this info online
Brushing scams occur when a person receives a package from a business containing various items that they never ordered. The packages will be addressed to your residence, but usually do not have a return address or have the return address of a retailer. The scammer typically orders the merchandise using a third-party seller like Amazon or eBay. Their aim is to pose as a verified buyer of that product so they can post a fake positive review online to boost their product rating and popularity.
Although this type of scam seems victimless, it likely means that your personal information has been leaked and is available somewhere online. This information may be your name, address, or phone number. While you may not face any immediate harm from a “brushing” scam, your leaked personal information could set you up for another type of scam or identity theft in the future.

Like others got a box of jumpers which would only fit pixies from KUR. Never ordered but correctly addressed and the box had Narwee Newsagency on the box. Suspect it is something else that was order and this bogus mob are supplying rubbish. Now never ordering anything FROM FB etc.
Two deliveries from FRANS KUR of NARWEE NEWSAGENCY two weeks apart. Not ordered or wanted. Stinky old clothes not even folded but jammed into boxes. So weird. So random. Going in the bin. SCAMMERS for sure. Will try reporting to local police in Narwee.
Like John, Nicolas & Cate I received a parcel correctly addressed, but not ordered. A box of used tee shirts 2 wks ago & then again today, same shipping details as others. I told the delivery driver I didn’t want it, he said I had to take it. Spose I’ll just donate it in hope it helps others out. But I’d really like to know why this is happening.
Just like John Murrell and Cate Thomas I also received a parcel at my post office that contained old clothes. Return address is Narwee Newsagency and a name of Frans KUR its very concerning, hopefully we can all work out what is going on. I have read something online that is called brushing which is a scam for reviews.
Like John Murrell's wife, I have also just received a parcel, correctly addressed to me & which has come from overseas via Cathay Pacific, containing weird clothing items that I didn't order. Return address is Narwee Newsagency - something suss going on in that place.
