Pro tip: use the name of a previous resident if your worried about it.
It's not going to get held, and no one is goign to ask you any questions. If it got tagged, it wouldn't make it past customs.All joke aside ... If the package is held by USPS with your real name for pickup, what, if any, answer is recommended if they ask questions about it?
Also, same goes for anyone who uses Zelle, bank wire or PayPal. (I know people use crypto, but I'm framing this along side the USPS questioning). I feel that the vendors who accept these form of payment must have a backstop story for the banks like "medical supplies" and that the buyers' resposnes should match. Correct?
As an immigrant in the US, the US government literally knows almost anything about me than they usually would of an American citizen...my middle school, high school, my home countrty's home address, my education history , my tiny amount of revolving debt (!), every single address I lived in the US, my grandparents who never lived in the US, my summer vacation address, etc etc...I hate the idea of the CCP getting my name and address, but they probably already got me in some database.
Best thing you can do is booking a vacation for a few days together with placing your order. Then tell your neighbours that you will place an order but won't be at home for a few days. Ask if you can give their name and adress for delivery? A good neighbour won't ever refuse such an innocent request, right? 🙂Hi, so it might be a weird question, but I'm really worried about safety - do you use your actual name when providing the address to your vendor? Or not?
Yup. Can't believe addresses are so easily found in the US.Your address is more sensitive information than your name anyway.
