Mandy Moore blasts Amazon over package left on doorstep of her father-in-law's home ravaged by LA fires

Mandy Moore has blasted Amazon over delivering a package to the burned remnants of her father-in-law's home following the LA fires.

The This Is Us star, 40, who was slammed last month for asking for donations for her relatives affected by the fires, shared a photo of a lone Amazon parcel placed at the completely destroyed home - with the snap seemingly taken by a delivery driver.

She wrote: 'Do better Amazon, Can we not have better discretion than to leave a package at a residence that no longer exists? 

'This is my mother and father-in-law's home, smh.' 

Moore's family home in Altadena was also damaged in the devastating blazes.

DailyMail.com has contacted Amazon for comment. 

Hour later Moore reflected on the fires and recalled the day she was evacuated alongside husband Taylor Goldsmith and their three children.

She wrote: 'We never got an evacuation notice. Sometimes in the quieter moments of processing the last month, I play the game of what would have happened if I didn’t have my phone next to me, playing my typical “piano for deep sleep” mix as I nursed Lou before bed, so I could answer the call from my brother-in-law? 

'It was 6:45 p.m. and he told me he, his wife, and our niece were evacuating, grabbing my in-laws (his parents) and getting the heck out of Dodge and we should do the same. I calmly walked downstairs and relayed this to my husband and without skipping a beat, we promptly packed up the kids (in their pjs), our dog, and scrambled to find our 3 cats as the power went out....

'We raced across town amidst fallen trees on the freeway to the safety of our dear friend’s place, got the kids down, and then I raced to Target to grab a litter box and some water, impulsively refreshing the watch duty app over and over. As we did all night. Over and over. 

'Watching the evacuation zone narrow in on our little 8-block radius. It took until 4 a.m. for it to turn red. All the while, tossing and turning with a stomach-churning anxiety I’ve never experienced before, both boys passed out between us in bed. Lou slept on the floor in a travel crib, and the dog curled up protectively by the door.

'We found out this week that while our house is still standing, because of the proximity to the fires/ burning structures (around us on all sides) the contents of our home are a near total loss. Clothes, furniture, pretty much everything will have to be disposed of…maybe even the walls too. We won’t be there for a very long time as it and the neighborhood itself get sorted out and cleaned and the rebuilding starts. I say all of this because i’m struggling. 

'Yes we are exceedingly lucky to technically still have the structure of a home. But also… do we still have a home? I think my definition is in flux. The physical space? No. It goes without saying that our sweet brood and our pets are ALL that matters and home is where we are together… but having a sanctuary and safe space to feel settled really goes a long way too. 

'We weren’t even looking to move when we stumbled upon it in the early summer days of covid in 2020 and instinctively knew that it would be where we raised our kids. It was a wild gamble to buy a home during that period of so much unknown but as serendipity would have it, I found out I was pregnant with Gus 2 weeks after we closed. It took us 4 years to slowly and painstakingly restore, remodel, and make it our own...

'By the grace of god we found a place to stay in the meantime and the kids are happy and safe. We’ve even starting collecting the books and toys that they’ve lost. It’s not a competition of who lost what or more. Real human beings across this town, regardless of their jobs or socioeconomic status, lost the life they’d come to know and count on in an instant. My whole heart is with them. Every one of them. This place, our home and the town itself, was our dream and I hope in time it will feel like that again… just a slightly different one...

'I find myself drifting back to Altadena, driving up and down the streets while Lou naps in the car, still not able to fully comprehend all of it or what it means, or on my less optimistic days, how any of us move forward . I’m reaching out and asking for help and guidance on how to process this trauma because my brain and heart are so deeply broken.'

Last month the millionaire star told her followers to 'F Off' after she was criticized for asking for donations for her relatives left homeless by the LA fires.

The actress - one of the A-listers whose homes were damaged as the wild fire swept through the city  - was slammed by many after she shared a GoFundMe for her family members on Instagram.

But Moore did not hold back when replying to those asking her whether she was contributing funds to her family.

'People questioning whether we’re helping out our own family or attributing some arbitrary amount of money Google says someone has is NOT helpful or empathetic,' Moore snapped.

'Of course we are. Our buddy Matt started this go fund me and I’m sharing because people have asked how they can help them. We just lost most of our life in a fire too. Kindly F OFF. No one is forcing you to do anything.'

Moore, who has an estimated net worth of $14 million, previously shared that her brother-in-law and sister-in-law 'lost their home and everything they own' just weeks before they welcome their first child. 

'Griff is a touring musician and also lost his entire arsenal of drums/percussion he uses to make a living,' Moore wrote on Instagram.

'It’s all so much. So many have asked how to help during this unimaginable and stressful time…Please consider donating and sharing to help them rebuild.'

Many people left negative comments following Moore's call for help, with many  asking why the star couldn't just 'get them a new house.'

'You can’t help them? You're millionaires????' read one comment.

But many stood with Moore amid the criticism, with her fans saying the comments were cruel and lacked sympathy for a tragic event.

One fan wrote: 'I find it incredibly cruel that in the wake of extreme tragedy & loss that there are so many hateful & hurtful comments here. 

'If you don’t want to donate to this family then don’t but I hope you donate to other organizations in need because there are so many. Please try to lead with empathy.'

The GoFundMe has received $142,000 of its $145,000 goal; actor Zachary Levi was one of over a thousand donors, giving $10,000.

The GoFundMe was started by Hillary Duff's husband Matthew Komo. 

Moore had previously revealed that her own home was left 'mostly intact' by the fires but 'unlivable.' 

The Altadena home she shares husband Taylor Goldsmith was partially burned down due to the Eaton fire as she joined many other celebrities whose homes unfortunately suffered similar fates.

The wildfires have been rapidly spreading across Los Angeles with firefighters conceding they remain powerless to contain the flames because of strong winds.

The actress and singer shared photos of the rubble along with a lengthy message beginning with the news that part of their home still remained standing.

She wrote: 'We were able to park and walk up our street to bear witness to all the loss. Miraculously, the main part of our house is still standing. For now. It’s not livable but mostly intact.

'We lost Taylor and griffin’s studio with every instrument and piece of equipment they’ve ever owned. We lost our garage and back house.'

Mandy went on to sadly reveal that everyone that they know in the area were not as fortunate - giving her a sense of survivors guilt - as they were as every house on their street is gone including the home of her in-laws.

The Candy hitmaker continued: 'Everyone we know lost everything. Every house on our street is gone. My in laws.

'My brother and sister in law- 6 weeks from welcoming their first baby. Our best friends. Feeling weird survivors guilt.'

At least 10 people were killed and thousands of structures were burned as fierce wildfires raged in the Los Angeles area, officials said. 

Fast-moving flames blazed through homes and businesses as residents fled smoke-filled canyons and picturesque neighborhoods that are home to many celebrities.

Many of the towering fires that began Tuesday were fueled by powerful Santa Ana winds, which gusted to more than 70 mph in some spots. The winds dropped Thursday, but the National Weather Service warned that even the reduced gusts could still spread fire rapidly.

The exact death toll remained unclear, but it was expected to rise as crews begin to search the rubble. 

Gov. Gavin Newsom said California has deployed more than 1,400 firefighting personnel to battle the blazes. Oregon, Washington, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona dispatched teams to assist.

AccuWeather, a private company that provides data on weather and its impact, increased its estimate of the damage and economic loss to $135 billion to $150 billion. Government officials have not yet released any damage estimates.
