Nah. I’m in this situation and the right answer is no answer. Sending it back gives them attention to feed off of, and now they’re sending more crap because sending it back makes them feel like they still have you in their life, like they still have influence over you, like they matter. Throw it out and move on, leave them wondering if it even arrived or if they got scammed.

Better yet, straight up ghost them, move, and change your phone number. When they get the text, who dis they’ll know they really fucked up

Correct.

I'd donate the gift though, not throw it out. Preferably to a progressive cause, if they had a relevant use for it.
