Over here, I think they just randomly open parcels. I had some jeans from the US delivered via DHL about 4 years ago now and got hit with customs fees. The jeans cost me £50 and they wanted £35 in fees. I ignored it, they chased a couple times, then stopped. Not heard a thing since (I've probably jinxed it now...)
Also one thing to bear in mind is that if an item is marked up at a low value and goes missing is that you will only be entitled to compensation up to the value on the paperwork. So if you paid $100 for something, but the parcel is marked up at $20, then you won't get any more than $20 if it gets lost.
