Why would someone steal your credit card, buy things online, and have it shipped to your house?!?

Question

come on now! why would they do that?

Answer 1

Cuz they're idiots?

Answer 2

They realized that they would be caught if they shipped it to their own house...but still wanted to feed their need for shopping?

Answer 3

Maybe the place they bought from will only ship to the authorized billing address that's associated with the credit card, and they were too stupid to realize that?

Answer 4

Perhaps they thought they could intercept it before you picked up the package. For example, if the package was left at the door while you were at work, the thief could grab it then.
