Essential Order and Shipping Thread

[gibsonb2]

Mine says the same thing. I would imagine it's the normal route they take.

My FedEx tracking went from leaving China and now it says its in japan. Is it normal for FedEx to stop in japan on the way to the states?

Noticed that as well. The FedEx flight the shipment is on must have a stop in Japan. There are probably multiple itineraries for flights from China.

I ordered the O5 a few days ago and already received it. Happy with this phone. I want nothing to do with Essential. I hope they go belly up by the holidays

Finally someone doing actually work while reporting this. Good job Verge since this will light some fire under Essential ***.

Nice if it clears customs tonight in Memphis then we can expect Thursday delivery. Generally for Seattle I have seen packages start in Memphis around 3.30 am and I get delivery in the morning.

The main catch is if it can clear customs in Memphis tonight. Fingers crossed

Whoo hooo

Can I ask how do we know that flight has our Essential Phones on it?

I'm in Louisiana and have a 10:30 a.m. delivery time, so I think it should get here. If Harvey behaves.

So did any of the folks who got their tracking numbers last week get their phones today? Mine "shipped" Tuesday I think and it says Friday delivery, but the prior wave should be getting delivered right?

Considering I am a professor of cybersecurity, it would be pretty bad if I got Phished. But no, it's actually from Essential.

PSA: Don’t reply to that Essential Phone ‘order verification’ email, it’s a scam

Essential acknowdges it on twitter too

Read the Verge article on that who did little more work than all these other lazy sites.

Just read the Verge article....so they shared all the Non Public Information (NPI) of all the people that they asked to verify identities. So soon all that information will be available on the dark web for sale....

Non Personal Information (NPI)

I would consider drivers license, cc reports and scanned passports somewhat personal.

My bad... i meant to say Non Public Information (NPI)

 

[Silverberg]

I don't think thats the flight. There are 3 in the same flight path. I think its flight 5986

 

[Silverberg]

How could anyone be so careless to fall for that. Especially people who hang out on tech websites.

Someone knows how desperate people are to get these phones, and they took advantage of that.

 

[ctonylee]

5986 Didn't stop in Japan. Our FedEx tracking shows a stop in Japan.

My tracking shows it stopped in Japan but isn't scheduled till Friday delivery. I think I'm in the same flight others mentioned so not sure how phones will get delivered tomorrow. I live in NY
