Around Halloween kids steal pumpkins and smash them in the road. It's only a pumpkin. My neighbor was tired of it so put pins through the Jack O' Lantern from the inside poking out. Sat on the porch til Christmas, had a few blood drops but never moved.
Decoy box weighted with a brick and pins?
I've never had package thieves here, but they just hit one of my shipments apparently. I had an eBay buyer say they never received their item, but FedEx shows it as delivered. There's nothing to do from here but place a claim and refund the buyer's money. I doubt FedEx will pay out. Well, it's only $30 but it sucks to put in work and pay for shipping and get nothing back.
Wyze cameras are $20 if you order from their website. Add a $10 microSD card and a $10 silicone boot mount for outdoors if you don't have a window to look through. Hard to justify not having one at that price.

How good is the picture from the Wyze cameras ,
From 20-30ft away can you recognize the thief and good enough for the cops to arrest him ?
Some of the cameras I have seen would show he was wearing a red hat and dark jacket but not enough detail to charge anyone in court ,
In reply to californiamilleghia :
This is a what my back patio looks like right now, through a window with a screen on it:
I’m a fan of Wyze cams also. But beware the night vision isn’t viable if you keep it inside a window looking out. Reflection blinds itself because obviously outside darkness makes the window into a mirror
Oldopelguy: if you have one mounted outside, how long has it been there? For $20 I almost don’t care but I haven’t mounted one of mine outside yet. Curious if they can survive temperature and humidity extremes even if they’re protected by an overhang.

Yes, but with a delay timer (so they can get to their car), and dog poop.
Lots of dog poop.
Fresh, wet, nasty, could slip through a tennis racket, dog poop.
