UPS Tracking Number meaning
LPT: The first six digits of a UPS tracking number after 1Z = the shipper's account number, if you need to return at shipper's expense.
This seems ripe for exploitation...what sort of checks exist to prevent unauthorized shipping?

Which one is the tracking number?
I ordered some items from two totally different suppliers, and I noticed that the entire tracking number was exactly the same, except for the last 3 digits.
Does that mean they were shipped using the same account number, and potentially shipped from the same organization?
I found this information in another post. Is it still relevant? https://www.reddit.com/r/AmazonSeller/comments/rw6ea3/i_need_my_ups_account_number_associated_with_a/
The account number is the 6 numbers/letters after 1Z.
