Mystery Gift Buyer Holding Our Gifts

Alana, on September 23, 2025 at 10:32 PM Posted in Registry 0 9
Somebody who called themselves Jane Doe ordered about half our Target wedding registry and has yet to communicate with us. They bought these items on 9/2/25 Why would someone buy gifts off our registry anonymously to give to us personally and not give us the gifts?

    This sounds extremely fishy and like someone didn't actually buy you the gifts that were marked off.

    Ohhhhh. I hadn't thought of that until now. 🤔 I wonder if that is even possible. When I called Target the other day, they were under the impression the items were bought. The rep couldn't see who it really was who bought them. It's insane. 😔 I told my now husband the other night it stinks because we really need some of these items and I would buy them, but I didn't want to waste money on something someone will be giving us. It doesn't seem like anyone we know knows who it is.

    Wow. If bought on sep 2 and you have had your wedding and half of these are marked but not given to you, it seems a stranger can buy stuff from your list just because they like those items. You maybe have to redo that list to show you still need these items. Did you get anything from this registry?

    I wondered this as well, Target's chat bot told me they have higher security to disallow this from happening. Someone bought the stuff.

    I hope you're doing well. My name is Lea, and I'm currently in the early stages of planning my wedding.
    I've been exploring different planners and came across your profile-your work really stood out to me.

    Lol I still have no idea who it is or where the presents are. I'm now under the impression that whoever said someone liked my gifts and bought them for themselves was right.

    No, not at all. The mystery person bought items on the registry that we really do need. It's puzzling to me that someone would actually buy someone else's wedding registry items not meant for THE wedding couple. 😒 😐 😑

    I’ve seen that name before and I think is scammer.
