‘Twas the night before Christmas when a Silverhorn Drive resident phoned JCSO with a delicious mystery. Some weeks before he’d received an email from the Honey Baked Ham Company thanking him for purchasing their eponymous product from an outlet in Michigan. Not long after, UPS informed him that they’d successfully delivered the savory feast to a hungry household in Georgia. Problem was, while both messages contained his correct personal information, he was reasonably sure he’d never agreed to subsidize a stranger’s celebratory supper. On the plus side, Honey Baked Ham was able to provide the last four digits of the credit card used to buy the glazed goody, a credit reporting agency confirmed that no such card had ever been issued in his name, and no pork-related charges had ever appeared on his account. Even so, he feared lest some swine go hog wild with his identity. Suspecting an innocent email error on the pickled pig purveyor’s part, a deputy gamely attempted to contact the company by phone, but its offices are apparently not staffed on Christmas Eve.
