AMAZON have sacked a delivery driver after he was caught “opening customers packages” in his van.

Shocking footage shows the moment that the worker rifled through the parcels in the back of his van in Newent, Gloucestershire.

Customer Caz Brown was horrified to catch the delivery man red handed slicing the parcels open when he thought no one was looking last week.

Caz, 35, spotted the driver for the online retailer parked outside of her house opening the parcels while sitting in the driver’s seat.

She had been hoovering when she claims she saw him unpack the parcels, and started to film him.

The video shows the driver reaching over to the passenger seat and grabbing a small box.

He then appears to open the box and looks at the contents before sliding it back into the packaging.

The driver then puts the package that he opened back onto the passenger seat as more packaging can be seen in the foot-well area.

The clip then ends after he puts his key back into the ignition before driving off.

Caz said: “I was upstairs hoovering when he came. I collected my parcel, went back up the stairs to continue and saw the van parked outside still so I watched him from the bedroom window.

"I noticed him opening parcels and checking what was in them.

“He kept looking back up the drive suspiciously, in case someone came round the corner.

“He opened about three or four packages and then drove off.

“My package hasn't been opened as it was taped shut with the Amazon tape so clearly it would have been obvious if it was tampered with."

The giant online retails has confirmed that the driver will no longer be delivering parcels in the run up to the festive period.

A spokesperson for Amazon added: “We have very high standards for our delivery service providers and how they serve customers.

“We are taking this matter seriously and have reached out to the customer to make this right.

“The delivery associate will no longer be delivering on behalf of Amazon.”
