The Postal service is indeed a Federal Agency; the IRS is not.
UPS, USPS, Fedex, etc.. opens suspicious packages under the Homeland Security Act. With that tag they can do anything they want.
Anyone else getting their packages opened?

Let me add this:
The Modern Postal Service: Agency or Business?
Until adoption of the Postal Reorganization Act of 1970, the U.S. Postal Service functioned as a regular, tax-supported, agency of the federal government.
According to the laws under which it now operates, the U.S. Postal Service is a semi-independent federal agency, mandated to be revenue-neutral. That is, it is supposed to break even, not make a profit.
I've had several packages that I could tell had been opened then resealed. I didnt make a report of it because I don't know if the place I bought from forgot to add an item and opened it to put something else in. Nothing was missing so...??? Who knows.
So you had lots of different vendors forgetting things and repacking your mail, lol.
USPS can and will open your mail anytime they want and you should be thankful for them doing so.
You get the same thing when you fly internationally , if the TSA wants, they will open your luggage inspect and close .
No big deal.
No Lawyer in his right mind will go with you, lolYou will not sue nobody's pants since its their legal right to do so and you should be thankful they do.
But, I guess some people will sue anybody these days.
"Fear of God in them" - LMAO
I get packages from friends overseas about 4 times a year. 3 out of 4 of them are opened and gone through then resealed. Nothing ever seems to be missing. Never really questioned it, just assumed it was part of their jobs to check them.
It was me that opened your packages! 
I got jealous about everyone else's shipping confirmations, so I opened all of them!!!!
JK. In all seriousness, that is a bummer, but these things do happen. I just got my V2 today, nothing opened and there was a 10 ml of Riskee in there also.
vape on!

It is sad that they do open it.
but it is suppose to be taped back with proper Tape that Notes who opened it.
IE Customs Tape or Postal Tape.
Lucky that none of my packages have ever been opened. 2-4 cartons of marbs from philippines.. and another was 3lbs of tobacco Leaves. 3lbs equals about 50 leaves.
They smell good also & Don't have the extra's sprayd on them.
None has been opened.. 1 reason why is cause its not easily opened.. There is tape completely wrapped around the whole package.
Also your not suppose to mail tobacco products. Yet your limited to mailing 10 lbs a month of tobacco. They Contradict themselves on all of it.
Thinks I will place a order from china just to see if it gets opened. As I have never ordered liquid from china Only Electronics.

It isn't a crime when 'they' do it... just us...
well just cause they are the gov doesnt mean they can do what ever the H**L they want.
international shipments are a different story. I fully expect Customs to inspect a LOT of these. I had a shipment from CN during the holidays, which was not opened. No juice though, only hardware.
I only had 1 shipment ever opened by customs ... And it wasn't on purpose ... The old box ripped apart, so they took the 300 or so bottles of juice from that one box, and reboxed everything for me safe and sound Other than that, I have never had anything opened.
Other than that, I have never had anything opened.
Won't get into the government issue As this is not the spot for it.
But also on note the postal in Philippines does not want to ship liquids how it was told.
And they stand there and watch you pack it. At-least where she lives.
unless they Want to make sure it won't leak etc not sure about it as never tried to ship any liquids from there. Only Tobacco products.
