During the past week, I've received mail addressed to men who don't live

at my residence.

All Hispanic names.

With employment authorization cards.

I don't know them.

I googled their names and nothing.

I sent the packages back to USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services).

Now I'm concerned. What if these individuals come to my home, looking for their mail?

What should I do or should have done?

the envelopes and given them back to your mail carrier. That happened to me during the height of the pandemic with unemployment checks. No one ever came to my door looking for his/her check.
