Erika Lora, 35, came to the Hartung Drive resident’s front door, provided the name on the package and asked for it, Lt. Joseph Soto said.
The resident claimed the package – containing a new cellphone worth about $1,000 -- never arrived, Soto said.
She called police as the couple drove off in a car they’d parked in the homeowner’s driveway, he said.
Wyckoff police broadcast an alert, and Upper Saddle River police stopped the car a short time later, the lieutenant said.
Both Lora and Juan Carlos Lugo, 44, were charged with conspiring to receive stolen property. Both were released pending court hearings.
