Good evening all! Someone sent me a envelope first class mail with my home address and my name and zip code with no return address only that it came from Greenville SC, I know no one by that address and I have no relatives or friends in that state I never been there in my life inside the envelope was a picture of me at the age of two on my mothers lap and next to it is a picture of me at about 19 or so sitting on the Staten island ferry. I am 29 now! Nothing else no letter no nothing. just those two pictures they look like they were copied from pictures and put on a unlined white sheet of typing paper. It came today. I cannot remember giving anyone a picture of me like those and I do not face book or my space. I wonder if they can hack away and get pictures off the internet from long ago I am very nervous about this makes no sense to me? Star

If you google the address, you might get a name associated with it and that may help you figure out who the sender is. (edit, I see you have no address)
It sounds like something my 86 year old Uncle would do. He loves to play with his computer and printer. He scans all kinds of old pictures of us into his computer and prints them out and mails them to us.
I would not be concerned about it.
Last Christmas I received a Christmas card from a family I have no idea who they are. They live in Florida. I asked everyone I know on FB, email and Linkedin if they knew who these people were and no takers. I googled them and they seem like nice people but I have no idea who the heck they are. LOL

I don't blame you. It is unnerving. But I do think it sounds like a well meaning relative.
The return address label may have fallen off. You know seniors, they have their first stamp, so the return address label may have been from the Carter administration. LOL

The envelope has decorated stuffed animals and I see no evidence it is from a relative or a friend. I thought at first it was a party invite.

I speak with all my relatives I am getting married in the fall and we just had a big reunion last summer. My grandpa was the only older relative I had and he passed back in 2005.

Just because you didn't give anyone a photo doesn't mean that someone else might have. Your mom may have given a photo to a friend. Who else was with you on the ferry?
I wouldn't worry about it. It's weird, but not scary. If they were recent photos and someone were stalking you, it would be different, but baby pictures? I'd guess that someone passed away and these were in their things.
