The correct amount of oil verified by you? If not, verify it yourself, maybe they put oil in the car while the front end was still jacked up. Another potential answer (although unlikely) is the dipstick was swapped with one that is slightly longer. Hopefully someone wasn't using conventional oil in it and neglecting oil changes because that could cause sludge build up in the oil pan not to mention the valvetrain.
