Re: Help needed
I suspect they are struggling with the scale of the current attacks.
The general advice is here: note in particular the only legitimate returns address.
The criminals will go to considerable lengths to get their hands on the hardware because that's how they actually monetise their scam, and will even arrange their own own doorstep pick-ups which must be ignored.

Re: Help needed
There is nothing us customers can do here for you I'm afraid, so you could try putting in a complaint to see if that gets you anywhere:
