An Amazon delivery driver was filmed appearing to spit into his hand before wiping it on a package he had just left on the doorstep of a customer.
The recipients say they noticed the box was wet when they went to retrieve the delivery and at first assumed a dog had urinated on it.
Checking video footage from their doorbell camera, they were 'horrified' to find what had really taken place. The video was posted on social media to warn others following the incident in Los Angeles, which the recipient described as 'reckless' during the current coronavirus pandemic.
The customer quickly tried to decontaminate themselves after handling the package, before contacting the police and Amazon themselves to report the footage.
