An email you can adapt
The subject “Possible wrong-recipient notice [reference]” identifies the request. Replace each bracketed field with a checked detail and remove any sentence that does not describe your situation.
Subject: Possible wrong-recipient notice [reference] Hi [name], I received a delivery notice with reference [reference], but it does not appear to concern my order. Please check whether my address was used incorrectly through your official support process. I have not opened linked private details or forwarded the notice to a wider group. Let me know if you need the minimum message information through an approved route. Please avoid sharing the other person’s order information in your reply. Best, [sender]
Check the boundary
A mistaken message does not authorize accessing another person’s private order or contacting them using exposed details.
What a useful reply should settle
The response should acknowledge the report and explain any action relevant to your own contact record.
Follow the verified guidance and avoid retaining or circulating unnecessary information about the unintended recipient.
