Its 99% surely not camber wear


What was your camber reading on alignment? how about your Toe measurement?

SIgnificant tire wear (on inner or outer edges esp.) over "short" periods of time can almost always be attributed to incorrect toe settings. the OE specs are too tolerant...and your alignment tech didn't know what these numbers really mean...you're now paying for it.
