Does UPS ever open and inspect packages?


Lately, I have had a couple instances where I have shipped a practically mint item via UPS only to find out from the recepient that the item looked as if it had been taken apart or inpected. This happened most recently with a power cable. Again, it wasn't damaged per se, but it wasn't in the same condition that it was originally sent either. Cable was well packaged btw...

So, my question is (maybe a UPS employee can pipe in here) does UPS do any kind of a random package inspection? I can see where some of the weird stuff that we audiophiles ship around could fall under the area of "suspicious" at times, especially in this day and age (and especially if they x-ray random packages??), so I wondered if this was a possiblity.

I have purchased some Dell computers and they were open when arrived. I asked UPS and was told that they do random inspection due to security and drug trafficking concerns. They usually reseal the open box back with a security tape.
Don't know if they opened it but they could damaged it for sure.....
Stay away from Mister Brown!
Yes they can if they feel item might be improperly packed or if box was damaged in transit or other ?? they have to insure they don't get duped.
