They came by mail without any sort of accompinying letter or leaflet or any other information. The sender was something completely non-descript (uparcel-somethingsomething). Technically, I don't even know if this is even related to my order of tea seeds.

There is a phone number on the package. No idea if it would be a good idea to call…

*Edit: Many of you have said those look like mung beans. After googling what mung beans look like, I tend to agree. However, given the weird circumstances under which they were delivered to me, I'm not going to plant or eat them.

My apologies, I missed a warning on your other post:

The entire seed industry is notoriously and historically full of fraudsters. Most countries have enacted laws to protect the farmers/gardeners from this fraud. There is also a bunch of international treaties on the subject.

The most egregious larger fraudsters are usually caught. However small packet mail fraud with online retailers is rampant.
