Tamper proof security mail and bag collection bag including front and rear wall panels and gusseted side walls wherein the mouth end of the front panel is reinforced with steel plates and terminates below the reinforced plated rear wall, and the latter has spaced clevis pins therein and a pair of foldable reinforced plated wing members formed thereon and foldable relative thereto, with the gussets, wing members and front panel having grommeted eyelets therein alignable with the clevis pins enabling the wing members to be folded inwardly and the mouth end of the rear panel and the wing members to be single folded downwardly over the front panel so that the clevis pins project through the eyelets and receive padlock means for securing the bag mouth and gussets in closed untampering position. The plates in the front panel are midway spaced apart and enable this wall to be moved outwardly, when unlocked, to provide a large fully expanded V-shaped opening for the entry and removal of bag contents therethrough.
